 The aim here is not be complete or explain all concepts. It is to provide a reference for common steps and choices needed when setting up a docs site, but still at a beginner-friendly level.
+
+
+## Reasons to use MdDocs
+
+- Create an elegant, modern docs site for your project.
+- Create a static site and serve from Github Pages easily.
+- Flexible theming.
+- No coding in HTML or templating langauge needed - use your existing markdown files and a YAML config.
+- Customizable.
+- Plugins available.
+- Includes search by default.
+
+MkDocs is built in Python (like Sphynx) but you don't have to write Python code. If you setup a [Deploy](deloy) flow right, you don't even have to set it up locally, though then you can't preview.
