Getting Started

To get started with Yoda is easy. There is no need to download or install it separately as you can run Yoda straight off GitHub via the Yoda Landing Page.

In order to access issues in non-public repositories, you will need to set an appropriate personal GitHub Token. This is explained in the MANUAL.

You can of course also copy Yoda to your own GitHub repository (cloud or Enterprise). Simply get all the files in the /docs folder. Note, that Yoda can run against any GitHub (cloud or Enterprise) instance.

Documentation

Documentation is available either via the Yoda landing page or directly here.

Furthermore, a presentation explaining the rationale behind Yoda, etc. is available here.
