/** \mainpage PipeWire
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
PipeWire is low-level multimedia framework that provides:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Graph based processing.
 | 
						|
- Support for out-of-process processing graphs with minimal overhead.
 | 
						|
- Flexible and extensible media format negotiation and buffer allocation.
 | 
						|
- Hard real-time capable plugins.
 | 
						|
- Very low-latency for both audio and video processing.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
See \ref page_overview for an overview of PipeWire and \ref page_design
 | 
						|
for the design principles guiding PipeWire.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# Components
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
PipeWire ships with the following components:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- A \ref page_daemon that implements the IPC and graph processing.
 | 
						|
- An example \ref page_session_manager that manages objects in the \ref page_daemon.
 | 
						|
- A set of \ref page_tools to introspect and use the \ref page_daemon.
 | 
						|
- A \ref page_library to develop PipeWire applications and plugins (\ref
 | 
						|
  page_tutorial "tutorial").
 | 
						|
- The \ref page_spa used by both the \ref page_daemon and in the \ref
 | 
						|
  page_library.
