Asymptote (Vector Graphics Language)
Getting Started - Basics - Drawing - Labeling - Filling - Useful functions - Examples - Macros and Packages

Help - Reference - Advanced Asymptote - 3D Graphics - CSE5 Package - How to

To get started using Asymptote, it's a good idea to go through this guide in the following steps:

  1. Follow the instructions on the Downloads and Installation page
  2. Once you have downloaded and installed everything, configure Asymptote to run on your machine using the steps on the Basic Configuration page
  3. Look over Basics and skim through Reference or Examples to learn the basics of Asymptote coding
  4. Make a bunch of images!

If you wish to go on and become an Asymptote master, the sections on Advanced Configuration, Logical Operators and Loops, and Macros and Packages are essential.

If you're a problem solver, be sure to check out the Olympiad package!
