The main header `mujoco.h <https://github.com/google-deepmind/mujoco/blob/main/include/mujoco/mujoco.h>`_ exposes a
large number of functions. However the functions that most users are likely to need are a small fraction.
API function can be classified as:
- **Main entry points**
- :ref:`Parse and compile<Parseandcompile>` an :ref:`mjModel` from XML files and assets.
- :ref:`Main simulation<Mainsimulation>` entry points, including :ref:`mj_step`.
- **Support functions**
- :ref:`Support<Support>` functions requiring :ref:`mjModel` and :ref:`mjData`.
- Pipeline :ref:`components<Components>`, called from :ref:`mj_step`, :ref:`mj_forward` and :ref:`mj_inverse`.
- :ref:`Sub components<Subcomponents>` of the simulation pipeline.
- :ref:`Ray casting<Raycollisions>`.
- :ref:`Printing<Printing>` of various quantities.
- :ref:`Virtual file system<Virtualfilesystem>`, used to load assets from memory.
