This repository contains the source code for the official Waveform Database (WFDB) project website, built using Jekyll and the Just the Docs theme. The site serves as a central resource for the WFDB community, providing:

• A specification for the WFDB format.
• An overview of WFDB software implementations.

The website is hosted at https://wfdb.io.

The Waveform Database (WFDB) is a set of open file format standards for physiological waveform and annotation data. Originally developed by George B. Moody in 1989 at the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology, WFDB has become a widely adopted standard in the field of biomedical signal processing.

WFDB files typically consist of:

• Header files (.hea): Contain metadata about the recording.
• Signal files (.dat): Store the waveform data.
• Annotation files (.atr, .ann, etc.): Contain annotations such as beat labels or event markers.

For more details, refer to the WFDB Format Specification.

• _config.yml: Jekyll site configuration.
• Gemfile: Ruby gem dependencies.
• index.md: Homepage content.
• spec/: Contains pages related to the WFDB format specification.
• software/: Contains pages describing WFDB software implementations.
• working-group.md: Information about the WFDB Working Group.
