====== Target Audience ======

Hello and welcome to the wiki based documentation of BKChem.

This series of articles is intended for users that have never worked before with chemical drawing programs. These programs let you draw molecules. If you need help with your very first steps at drawing molecules or you struggle at some point with a setting/plugin, this documentation is for you.


====== Prerequisites ======

As you are reading this, you have the required knowledge of english, to read through the rest of this documentation. ^_^

Besides an interest in BKChem, there are no other requirements. Installation of BKChem will be described in the process later on.
