reuse documentation¶
This is the documentation for the REUSE tool. You may find more information about REUSE at https://reuse.software.
Important
If you are new to REUSE, you should start with the tutorial, which is a lightning-quick introduction to the fundamentals of REUSE. You may also want to peruse the frequently asked questions to learn about copyright, licensing, and more complex use cases.
API reference¶
