+## How the documentation is organised
+
+We are currently using the [diátaxis framework](https://diataxis.fr/) to organise
+our docs into four main categories:
+
+- [**Tutorials**](tutorials): Step-by-step guides to complete a specific task
+- [**How-To guides**](howto): Directions to solve scenarios faced while using the project. Their titles often complete the sentence "How do I...?"
+- [**Explanation**](explanation): More in-depth discussion of topics within the project to broaden understanding.
+- [**Reference**](ref): Technical descriptions of the components within the project, and how to use them
