Welcome to CHIA's documentation!
================================

**CHIA**  is a framework for **fast and flexible
orchestration of hardware design workflows** — where humans, agents, and existing
hardware-design tools all work together.

New to CHIA? Start with the :doc:`/getting-started/chia-basics` page, or go
straight to :doc:`/getting-started/installation` to set things up.

The current release of CHIA is considered a beta. Many library nodes have not yet
received thorough testing. Bugs in CHIA are likely. We encourage you to
reach out to us for assistance getting up and running with CHIA, and if you find
any issues which need to be fixed! Thank you!

CHIA may be either of the following acronyms (or possibly something else):

(**C**\ o-designing **H**\ ardware and software with **I**\ ntelligent **A**\ gents)

(**C**\ onstructing **H**\ ardware with **I**\ ntelligent **A**\ gents)

Originally CHIA stood for:

(**CH**\ ipyard's **I**\ ntelligent **A**\ gents)

(**CH**\ ipyard's **I**\ ntelligence **A**\ gency)
