Modules
=======

A **Module** is a major architectural building block which is defined as a component or a set of components realizing a :ref:`feature <features>` of the platform.
It is the physically compiled and packaged unit that results from the build process and is made available for delivery. For further explanation see the `Building blocks concept <https://eclipse-score.github.io/process_description/main/general_concepts/score_building_blocks_concept.html>`_.

.. note::
   For now, we store the modules documentation in the modules tree, because multi-repo docs are not yet supported.
   Once this support becomes available it will be moved to the right repo.
