<h1>Documentation</h1>
<h2>Manual</h2>
<p>
   Unfortunately, there is no formal manual for CELT yet. However, you can find some information about it:
<ul>
   <li>The <a href="http://git.xiph.org/?p=celt.git;a=blob;f=README;hb=HEAD">README file</a> distributed with libcelt</a> 
   <li>On <a href="http://jmspeex.livejournal.com/">Jean-Marc Valin's blog</a></li>
   <li>The celt-codec.org <a href="../presentations/">presentations page</a></li>
</ul>

</p>

<h2><abbr title="Application Programming Interface">API</abbr> Reference</h2>

<p>
	The CELT <abbr title="Application Programming Interface">API</abbr>
	Reference Manual provides information on programming with libcelt.
</p>

<ul>
	<li><a href="API.pdf">libcelt API</a></li>
   <li><a href="devel.pdf">internal API</a> (only useful for developing CELT itself)</li>
</ul>

<h2>Papers</h2>

<p>
The first paper describes version 0.3.2 of the codec, while the second describe the low-complexity mode of version 0.5.1. While there are minor differences with the current version (mostly with the bit allocation), most of the paper is still valid.
