Documentation Profiles

Hello!
Welcome to the first section of this space. This section introduces you to OpenMRS and what to expect from this wiki. We’ve organized this wiki so that everyone using OpenMRS can easily access and enjoy our documentation, giving you a clear understanding of who we are and what we do. Once again, welcome!
In this section, you'll learn what OpenMRS is and get a glimpse of our history. If you're new, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered with our Guide for the New and Curious. From there, you can dive into some Issues (How-to guide) to get your hands dirty. And if you come across any unfamiliar terms, our Glossary is here to help.
