# Introduction

⚠️ **Frontity Framework** [**is not under active development anymore.**](https://frontity.org/blog/frontity-is-joining-automattic/)

**The team is now working on** [**the WordPress Interactivity API**](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2024/03/04/interactivity-api-dev-note/)**. This unblocks the same UX Frontity framework enabled but directly in WordPress Core, fully compatible with the new Site Editor.**

## Introduction

Welcome to Frontity, and to the API Reference documentation.

The Frontity documentation is distributed across three separate sites:

* [**docs.frontity.org**](https://docs.frontity.org) - Introduction, concepts and guides
* [**api.frontity.org**](https://api.frontity.org) - API Reference
* [**tutorial.frontity.org**](https://tutorial.frontity.org) - Step-by-step guide

This site (api.frontity.org) is where you will find detailed technical descriptions for the CLI, packages and plugins available in Frontity.

If you're new to Frontity check out the [step-by-step tutorial](https://tutorial.frontity.org/). It's the quickest way to get up to speed with Frontity.
{% endhint %}

Let's kick things off by providing you with a roadmap so that you can find your way around the documentation and zero in on the information you need right now.

### Frontity CLI

In the [**CLI Commands**](https://api.frontity.org/frontity-cli) section you'll find information about the commands provided by the Frontity CLI that you can use to create, run and build your Frontity projects.

### Packages

Frontity packages are the ingredients of your Frontity project. They're **NPM packages** in charge of a specific portion of logic required by the project (routing, source, HTML render... ).

You can learn all about the existing Frontity packages in the section entitled [**Frontity Packages**](https://api.frontity.org/frontity-packages).

#### Themes Packages

Themes are just a special instance of a Frontity package. Really **everything** is a package when you're working with Frontity.

The official themes, namely `mars-theme` and `twentytwenty-theme`, are dealt with separately from the other packages under the [**Frontity Themes**](https://api.frontity.org/frontity-packages/themes-packages) section.

### Plugins

Sometimes a **Frontity WordPress plugin** is required so everything works smoothly. You'll find everything you need to know about them in the [**WordPress Plugins**](https://api.frontity.org/frontity-plugins) section.

{% hint style="info" %}
The [Frontity Community Forum](https://community.frontity.org/) is the best place to get community support while helping others with your own questions and solutions. To keep it running smoothly, we encourage you to read through this [Forum Guide](https://community.frontity.org/t/frontity-community-forum-users-guide/4399) and search the [available learning resources](https://frontity.org/learn/) before posting.
