Documentation

One book from the parts. Each manual is written and released by the repository it documents and imported here at a pinned version; the concepts and the glossary are shared across all of them.

Getting started

Open an archive that is already running, then run a RankeDB of your own, then bring your data in.

The model

Concepts

What a Ranke-Graph is, what provenance means here, and how a server, a library and a client compose into a system you can run.

Building on it

Developers

Write a tool, an adapter, or another implementation: the specification, the libraries, the query schema, and the conformance vectors.

Reference

Glossary

The vocabulary the papers, the specification and every manual share, defined once and linked from every chapter.
