+/**
+ * @page howtoContext Context
+ *
+ * The context concept allows callers to work in environments with different sets of YANG modules.
+ *
+ * The first step with libyang is to create a new context using ::ly_ctx_new(). It returns a handler used in the following work.
+ * Note that the context is supposed to provide a stable environment for work with the data. Therefore the caller should prepare
+ * a complete context and after starting working with the data, the context and its content should not change. If it does,
+ * in most cases it leads to the context being recompiled and any parsed data invalid. Despite the API not enforcing this
+ * approach, it may change in future versions in the form of a locking mechanism which would allow further
+ * optimization of data manipulation. Also note that modules cannot be removed from their context. If you need to change the set
+ * of the schema modules in the context, the recommended way is to create a new context. To remove the context, there is ::ly_ctx_destroy() function.
+ *
+ * The context has [several options](@ref contextoptions) changing behavior when processing YANG modules being inserted. The
+ * specific behavior is mentioned below. All the options can be set as a parameter when the context is being created or later
+ * with ::ly_ctx_set_options().
+ *
+ * When creating a new context, another optional parameter is search_dir It provide directory where libyang
+ * will automatically search for YANG modules being imported or included. There is actually a set of search paths which can be later
+ * modified using ::ly_ctx_set_searchdir(), ::ly_ctx_unset_searchdir() and ::ly_ctx_unset_searchdir_last() functions. Before the values
+ * in the set are used, also the current working directory is (non-recursively) searched. For the case of the explicitly set
+ * search directories, they are searched recursively - all their subdirectories (and symlinks) are taken into account. Searching
+ * in the current working directory can be avoided with the context's ::LY_CTX_DISABLE_SEARCHDIR_CWD option.
+ * Searching in all the context's search dirs (without removing them) can be avoided with the context's
+ * ::LY_CTX_DISABLE_SEARCHDIRS option (or via ::ly_ctx_set_options()). This automatic searching can be preceded
+ * by a custom module searching callback (::ly_module_imp_clb) set via ::ly_ctx_set_module_imp_clb(). The algorithm of
+ * searching in search dirs is also available via API as ::lys_search_localfile() function.
+ *
+ * YANG modules are added into the context using [parser functions](@ref howtoSchemaParsers) - \b lys_parse*().
+ * Alternatively, also ::ly_ctx_load_module() can be used - in that case the ::ly_module_imp_clb or automatic
+ * search in search directories and in the current working directory is used, as described above. YANG submodules cannot be loaded
+ * or even validated directly, they are loaded always only as includes of YANG modules. Explicitly parsed/loaded modules are
+ * handled as implemented - libyang is able to instantiate data representing such a module. The modules loaded implicitly, are
+ * not implemented and serve only as a source of grouping or typedef definitions. Context can hold multiple revisions of the same
+ * YANG module, but only one of them can be implemented. Details about the difference between implemented and imported modules
+ * can be found on @ref howtoSchema page. This behavior can be changed with the context's ::LY_CTX_ALL_IMPLEMENTED option, which
+ * causes that all the parsed modules, whether loaded explicitly or implicitly, are set to be implemented. Note, that as
+ * a consequence of this option, only a single revision of any module can be present in the context in this case. Also, a less
+ * crude option ::LY_CTX_REF_IMPLEMENTED can be used to implement only referenced modules that should also be implemented.
+ *
+ * When loading/importing a module without revision, the latest revision of the required module is supposed to load.
+ * For a context, the first time the latest revision of a module is requested, it is properly searched for and loaded.
+ * However, when this module is requested (without revision) the second time, the one found previously is returned.
+ * This has the advantage of not searching for the module repeatedly but there is a drawback in case the content of search
+ * directories is updated and a later revision become available.
+ *
+ * Context holds all the schema modules internally. To get a specific module, use ::ly_ctx_get_module() (or some of its
+ * variants). If you need to do something with all the modules in the context, it is advised to iterate over them using
+ * ::ly_ctx_get_module_iter(). Alternatively, the ::ly_ctx_get_yanglib_data() function can be used to get complex information about the schemas in the context
+ * in the form of data tree defined by <a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7895">ietf-yang-library</a> module.
+ *
+ * YANG data can be parsed by \b lyd_parse_*() functions. Note, that functions for schema have \b lys_
+ * prefix (or \b lysp_ for the parsed and \b lysc_ for the compiled schema - for details see @ref howtoSchema page) while
+ * functions for instance data have \b lyd_ prefix. Details about data formats or handling data without the appropriate
+ * YANG module in context can be found on @ref howtoData page.
+ *
+ * Besides the YANG modules, context holds also [error information](@ref howtoErrors) and
+ * [database of strings](@ref howtoContextDict), both connected with the processed YANG modules and data.
+ *
+ * - @subpage howtoErrors
+ * - @subpage howtoContextDict
+ *
+ * \note API for this group of functions is available in the [context module](@ref context).
