Open vSwitch Documentation
==========================
+How the Documentation is Organised
+----------------------------------
+
+The Open vSwitch documentation is organised into multiple sections:
+
+- :doc:`Installation guides </intro/install/index>` guide you through
+ installing Open vSwitch (OVS) and Open Virtual Network (OVN) on a variety of
+ different platforms
+- :doc:`Tutorials </tutorials/index>` take you through a series of steps to
+ configure OVS and OVN in sandboxed environments
+- :doc:`Topic guides </topics/index>` provide a high level overview of OVS and
+ OVN internals and operation
+- :doc:`How-to guides </howto/index>` are recipes or use-cases for OVS and OVN.
+ They are more advanced than the tutorials.
