# Shiva

## Introduction: <a href="#shiva-introduction" id="shiva-introduction"></a>

Welcome to the documentation of the **shiva** c++ engine

**shiva** is an engine programmed in **C++ 17** that aims to be very fast in runtime by using the maximum of features at the compilation while remaining extensible to the runtime.

It is based on an architecture of [modules](/project/shiva/modules.md) that can be used separately or together.
