/**
\page page_introduction Introduction
\tableofcontents
The Fast Light User Interface Designer, or FLUID, is a graphical editor that
can produce ready to compile C++ source code and header files.
This user manual will introduce FLUID, starting with the installation process,
an overview of the main application window, and how to compile and run a
simple program. I will explain how to generate a more complex user interface
with three short tutorial, followed by some advanced subject like creating
integrated reusable widget classes. The appendices will sum up node types
and code generation in more detail.
\section introduction_workflow Workflow
FLUID has two modes of operation. When started from the shell without command
line arguments, or when launched from the desktop, FLUID will open in
interactive mode.
If FLUID is started from the command line with `-u`, `-c`, or `cs`, it will
not open any user interface, but instead behave like any shell-only tool that
can be easily integrated into Makefiles and build systems like CMake.
