# lyp - The Lilypond Swiss Army Knife

lyp is an open-source tool that takes the pain out of working with [Lilypond](http://lilypond.org/).

__Use packages__: Install [packages](http://lyp.noteflakes.com/#/user-guide?id=working-with-packages) to enhance your Lilypond files with additional functionality. Add [specialized tweaks](http://lyp.noteflakes.com/#/packages?id=tweaking) or even [change the music font](http://lyp.noteflakes.com/#/packages?id=fonts).

__No hassle Lilypond installation__: with lyp you can [install Lilypond](http://lyp.noteflakes.com/#/user-guide?id=installing-and-using-lilypond) with a single easy command, no need to click links, or unzip and copy files around.

__Even more tools for power users__: watch and automatically [recompile](http://lyp.noteflakes.com/#/user-guide?id=lyp-watch) changed source files, [flatten](http://lyp.noteflakes.com/#/user-guide?id=lyp-flatten) include files, and [automatically install](http://lyp.noteflakes.com/#/user-guide?id=lyp-compile) package dependencies or any required version of Lilypond.
