Introduction

ArgoUML is an opensource project that supports basic UML modelling activities. Since it is such a useful piece of software you'd think it would be very easy to download and install from its official website, but that isn't the case it seems that since the project is opensource there isn't an official site to get it from meaning you may have to download it from an untrustworthy. All that being said here is how to download and install ArgoUML.
