# What is Karedi?

Karedi is a multi-platform editor that lets you conveniently create songs for Ultrastar. "Creating songs" is mapping the vocal track of the song to a format that the game understands.

To adapt a song to Ultrastar, you need to transcribe the vocal line - for every syllable of the song define when it begins and ends and in what pitch it should be sung. Doing it without some editor is practically impossible.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://karedi.gitbook.io/karedi/karedi-overview/what-is-karedi.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
