Getting started with the ELTK
=============================

The ELTK is intended: 

    * to manipulate linguistics data 
    * to translate un- or semi-structured data into `RDF <http://www.w3.org/RDF/>`_ (according to an ontology)
    * to expose RDF data in various display forms (e.g., HTML or PDF)
    * to provide the basis for web frameworks and services for linguistics

This section outlines each of these broad aims by giving a general description. Specific uses of ELTK code are given in later sections.
