@title Introduction
@group intro
This document provides a high-level overview of the Phabricator project.
= What is Phabricator? =
**Phabricator** (pronounced like the word //fabricator//) is a suite of web
applications which make it easier to build software, particularly when working
with teams. Phabricator is largely based on Facebook's internal tools.
The major components of Phabricator are:
- **Differential**, a code review tool; and
- **Diffusion**, a repository browser.
Phabricator also includes a number of smaller tools.
= Why use Phabricator? =
Phabricator gives you a box of reasonably decent tools for a comparatively small
setup cost. Plus:
- It has some good project names.
- Facebook integration makes it very hip indeed.
- It's fairly snappy.
- You only have to install and configure one thing instead of setting up
and customizing a bunch of tools you don't really care about.
- A couple of the core tools are actually pretty good.
- Maniphest allows you to close tasks "out of spite".
However, Phabricator may also not be a good solution for you:
- If you develop primarily on Windows, you are likely to find integration
with the toolsets you use lacking.
- If you don't use SVN or Git, you'll have to add support for your VCS before
you can get anywhere.
- If you loathe PHP, well, it's written in PHP.
