QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
A closer look.
What is open source at IronTrex?
Steelmatter Systems is the current public source project. Its Apache-2.0 licence applies to the published repository; it is not a statement that all IronTrex products, models or hosted services are open source.
Where should I start?
Read the release scope and quickstart on this page, then follow the documentation to inspect and run the source. The repository link opens GitHub separately so you can keep the IronTrex guide available.
