Examples

This section assumes a functional |project| installation for at least one programming language.

.. seealso::

   :ref:`install`
     Installing |project| from source or using a package manager.

   :ref:`troubleshooting`
     Solving common problems.

The goal of this section is teaching you how to accomplish some basic and some more advanced tasks using |project|. It is organize into the following parts:

.. toctree::
   :hidden:
   :maxdepth: 1

   examples-basic
   examples-chat
   examples-converters
   examples-extension-points

  1. :ref:`Basic Communication <tutorial-basic>`

    This first part teaches the basic communication patterns provided by |project|:

  2. :ref:`Building a simple chat system <tutorial-chat>`

    This part is concerned with designing and building a slightly more complex system applying the techniques of the first part.

  3. :ref:`Sending and Receiving Custom Data Types <tutorial-converters>`

    This part demonstrates sending and receiving of custom (non-builtin) :term:`data types <data type>` using |project| :term:`converters <converter>`.

  4. :ref:`Extending |project| <tutorial-extension-points>`

    This final part switches from the user to the developer perspective and shows how new capabilities can be added to |project|.

Note

Depending on your |project| configuration, the following examples may require a running :term:`Spread daemon` for successful execution.

If only a single machine is involved, the :term:`Spread daemon` can be started using the following command:

$ :samp:`{SPREAD_INSTALL_PREFIX}/sbin/spread` -n localhost
