title: OpenRefine product reference title: OpenRefine user manual
sidebar_label: Index sidebar_label: Introduction
--- ---
This site is just a prototype to propose a basic publishing infrastructure for OpenRefine's new product reference.
The structure on the left hand side is just a placeholder, as are the contents of all pages. This manual is designed to comprehensively walk through every aspect of setting up and using OpenRefine 3.4.1, including every interface function and feature.
<!--
This documentation platform provides a separate version of the user manual for each version of OpenRefine (from 3.4.1 onwards) - if you're looking for a later version than 3.4.1, please select the correct version from the dropdown menu in the top bar of this page.
-->
This user manual starts with instructions for [installing or upgrading OpenRefine on Windows, Mac, and Linux computers](installing). It then walks you through [the interface and how to run OpenRefine](running#jvm-preferences) from a program or command line, with or without setting custom preferences and modifications.
The manual then teaches you how to [start a project](starting) by importing an existing dataset. We work through how to [view and learn about your data](exploring) using facets, filters, and sorting.
Then we launch into [transforming that data permanently](transforming) through common and custom transformations, clustering, pulling data from the web, [reconciling](reconciling), and [writing expressions](expressions).
Finally we discuss what to do with your improved dataset, whether [exporting](exporting) it to a file or uploading statements to Wikidata.
If you're stuck on any aspect and can't find an answer in the manual, try the [Troubleshooting page](troubleshooting) for links to various places to find help.
If you are new and want to learn how to use OpenRefine using an example dataset, you may wish to start with a user-contributed tutorial from our [recommendations list](https://github.com/OpenRefine/OpenRefine/wiki/External-Resources).
