→Overview of Gramps: Consistently use the term 'category'
One can generally use Gramps any way one wishes. There is no single, correct method of working with or recording your data. However, if you wish to collaborate with other researchers or programs, it helps to conform to some common guidelines. Even if you are familiar with common genealogy research practices, you still need to understand how Gramps works. Then you can jump into how to use the Gramps program in a way that complements a particular genealogical research style.
Gramps separates all genealogical information into 9 primary categories of items:
* {{icon|peop}} [[Gramps_Glossary#person|People]]
* {{icon|fami}} [[Gramps_Glossary#family|Families]]
