Abstract

This Gramps Wiki Manual for version 5.2 is the online user's guide, detailing most aspects of the Gramps application, a database for the collection of genealogical information. As of Thursday, 28 March 2024, the most current Gramps release is the 5.2.1 version. Both Gramps and the accompanying Wiki Manual have been translated into multiple languages.

For older Wiki Manuals, see the archival versions made for previous releases of Gramps. The last downloadable manual (for offline use) was in 2012 for the version 3.3.x of Gramps.
