        ----
        
        VisPy is a **high-performance interactive 2D/3D data visualization
        library**. VisPy leverages the computational power of modern **Graphics
        Processing Units (GPUs)** through the **OpenGL** library to display very
        large datasets. Applications of VisPy include:
        
        -  High-quality interactive scientific plots with millions of points.
        -  Direct visualization of real-time data.
        -  Fast interactive visualization of 3D models (meshes, volume
           rendering).
        -  OpenGL visualization demos.
        -  Scientific GUIs with fast, scalable visualization widgets (`Qt <http://www.qt.io>`__ or
           `IPython notebook <http://ipython.org/notebook.html>`__ with WebGL).

        Using VisPy
        -----------
        
        VisPy is a young library under heavy development at this time. It
        targets two categories of users:
        
        1. **Users knowing OpenGL**, or willing to learn OpenGL, who want to
           create beautiful and fast interactive 2D/3D visualizations in Python
           as easily as possible.
        2. **Scientists without any knowledge of OpenGL**, who are seeking a
           high-level, high-performance plotting toolkit.
        
        If you're in the first category, you can already start using VisPy.
        VisPy offers a Pythonic, NumPy-aware, user-friendly interface for OpenGL
        ES 2.0 called **gloo**. You can focus on writing your GLSL code instead
        of dealing with the complicated OpenGL API - VisPy takes care of that
        automatically for you.
        
        If you're in the second category, we're starting to build experimental
        high-level plotting interfaces. Notably, VisPy now ships a very basic
        and experimental OpenGL backend for matplotlib.
        
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        Please follow the detailed
        `installation instructions <http://vispy.org/installation.html>`_
        on the VisPy website.
        
        Structure of VisPy
        ------------------
        
        Currently, the main subpackages are:
        
        -  **app**: integrates an event system and offers a unified interface on
           top of many window backends (Qt4, wx, glfw, IPython notebook
           with/without WebGL, and others). Relatively stable API.
        -  **gloo**: a Pythonic, object-oriented interface to OpenGL. Relatively
           stable API.
        -  **scene**: this is the system underlying our upcoming high level
           visualization interfaces. Under heavy development and still
           experimental, it contains several modules.
        
           -  **Visuals** are graphical abstractions representing 2D shapes, 3D
              meshes, text, etc.
           -  **Transforms** implement 2D/3D transformations implemented on both
              CPU and GPU.
           -  **Shaders** implements a shader composition system for plumbing
              together snippets of GLSL code.
           -  The **scene graph** tracks all objects within a transformation
              graph.
        -  **plot**: high-level plotting interfaces.
        
        The API of all public interfaces are subject to change in the future,
        although **app** and **gloo** are *relatively* stable at this point.
        
        Code of Conduct
        ---------------
        
        The VisPy community requires its members to abide by the
        `Code of Conduct <./CODE_OF_CONDUCT>`_. In this CoC you will find the
        expectations of members, the penalties for violating these expectations, and
        how violations can be reported to the members of the community in charge of
        enforcing this Code of Conduct.
        
        Genesis
        -------
        
        VisPy began when four developers with their own visualization libraries
        decided to team up:
        `Luke Campagnola <http://luke.campagnola.me/>`__ with `PyQtGraph <http://www.pyqtgraph.org/>`__,
        `Almar Klein <http://www.almarklein.org/>`__ with `Visvis <https://github.com/almarklein/visvis>`__,
        `Cyrille Rossant <http://cyrille.rossant.net>`__ with `Galry <https://github.com/rossant/galry>`__,
        `Nicolas Rougier <http://www.loria.fr/~rougier/index.html>`__ with `Glumpy <https://github.com/rougier/Glumpy>`__.
        
        Now VisPy looks to build on the expertise of these developers and the
        broader open-source community to build a high-performance OpenGL library.
