+CPack IFW Generator
+-------------------
+
+See :module:`CPackIFW` for details on the CPackIFW module.
+
+.. _QtIFW: http://doc.qt.io/qtinstallerframework/index.html
+
+
+Overview
+^^^^^^^^
+
+CPack ``IFW`` generator helps you to create online and offline
+binary cross-platform installers with a graphical user interface.
+
+CPack IFW generator prepares project installation and generates configuration
+and meta information for QtIFW_ tools.
+
+The QtIFW_ provides a set of tools and utilities to create
+installers for the supported desktop Qt platforms: Linux, Microsoft Windows,
+and Mac OS X.
+
+You should also install QtIFW_ to use CPack ``IFW`` generator.
+
+Hints
+^^^^^
+
+Generally, the CPack ``IFW`` generator automatically finds QtIFW_ tools,
+but if you don't use a default path for installation of the QtIFW_ tools,
+the path may be specified in either a CMake or an environment variable:
+
+.. variable:: CPACK_IFW_ROOT
+
+ An CMake variable which specifies the location of the QtIFW_ tool suite.
+
+ The variable will be cached in the ``CPackConfig.cmake`` file and used at
+ CPack runtime.
+
+.. variable:: QTIFWDIR
+
+ An environment variable which specifies the location of the QtIFW_ tool
+ suite.
+
+.. note::
+  The specified path should not contain "bin" at the end
+  (for example: "D:\\DevTools\\QtIFW2.0.5").
+
+The :variable:`CPACK_IFW_ROOT` variable has a higher priority and overrides
+the value of the :variable:`QTIFWDIR` variable.
+
+Internationalization
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Some variables and command arguments support internationalization via
+CMake script. This is an optional feature.
+
+Installers created by QtIFW_ tools have built-in support for
+internationalization and many phrases are localized to many languages,
+but this does not apply to the description of the your components and groups
+that will be distributed.
+
+Localization of the description of your components and groups is useful for
+users of your installers.
+
+A localized variable or argument can contain a single default value, and a
+set of pairs the name of the locale and the localized value.
+
+For example:
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+   set(LOCALIZABLE_VARIABLE "Default value"
+     en "English value"
+     en_US "American value"
+     en_GB "Great Britain value"
+     )
+

+Online installer
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+By default CPack IFW generator makes offline installer. This means that all
+components will be packaged into a binary file.
+
+To make a component downloaded, you must set the ``DOWNLOADED`` option in
+:command:`cpack_add_component`.
+
+Then you would use the command :command:`cpack_configure_downloads`.
+If you set ``ALL`` option all components will be downloaded.
+
+You also can use command :command:`cpack_ifw_add_repository` and
+variable :variable:`CPACK_IFW_DOWNLOAD_ALL` for more specific configuration.
+
+CPack IFW generator creates "repository" dir in current binary dir. You
+would copy content of this dir to specified ``site`` (``url``).
