Contributed module documentation

Chaos Tool Suite (ctools)

The Chaos Tool Suite (ctools) is a series of tools that makes code readily available for developers and creates libraries for other modules to use. Modules that use ctools include Views and Panels, while Pathauto required it until 1.10.

End users will use ctools as underlying user interface libraries when operating Views and Panels modules and will not need to explore further (ctools is geared more toward developer usage). Developers will use the module differently and work more with the tools provided.
