Introduction</h2>
<p>Welcome to the Irrlicht Engine API documentation. Here you'll find any information you'll need to develop applications with the Irrlicht Engine. If you are looking for a tutorial on how to start, you'll find some on the homepage of the Irrlicht Engine at <a href="http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net">irrlicht.sourceforge.net</a> or inside the SDK in the examples directory.</p>
<p>The Irrlicht Engine is intended to be an easy-to-use 3d engine, so this documentation is an important part of it. If you have any questions or suggestions, just send a email to the author of the engine, Nikolaus Gebhardt (niko (at) irrlicht3d.org).</p>

Short example</h2>
<p>A simple application, starting up the engine, loading a Quake 2 animated model file and the corresponding texture, animating and displaying it in front of a blue background and placing a user controlable 3d camera would look like the following code. I think this example shows the usage of the engine quite well:</p>

</pre></div><p>As you can see, the engine uses namespaces. Everything in the engine is placed into the namespace 'irr', but there are also 5 sub namespaces. You can find a list of all namespaces with descriptions at the <a href="namespaces.html">namespaces page</a>. This is also a good place to start reading the documentation. If you don't want to write the namespace names all the time, just use all namespaces like this: </p>
<div class="fragment"><pre class="fragment"> <span class="keyword">using namespace </span>core;
<span class="keyword">using namespace </span>scene;
<span class="keyword">using namespace </span>video;
<span class="keyword">using namespace </span>io;
<span class="keyword">using namespace </span>gui;
</pre></div><p>There is a lot more the engine can do, but I hope this gave a short overview over the basic features of the engine. For more examples, please take a look into the examples directory of the SDK. </p>
