## Welcome to the Geth user manual!
Geth (go-ethereum) is an Ethereum client implemented in Go. This website
contains the Geth documentation, including:
* [Getting Started Guide](./getting-started)
* [Installation Instructions](./install-and-build/installing-geth)
* [JSON-RPC Server](./rpc/server)
* [JavaScript Console](./interface/javascript-console)
* [Dapp developer docs](/docs/dapp/native)
For the Go API reference and developer documentation head over to
[GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum). Geth's source code can
be found on Geth's [Github](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum).
For information on [The Merge](https://ethereum.org/en/upgrades/merge)
(Ethereum's transition from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake) and
how it will affect Geth users, visit the [Merge page](/docs/interface/merge).
