+Writing Documentation
+=====================
+
+Documentation is an essential part of any software product.
+
+4 Types of Documentation
+
+This site is an example of **Reference** documentation.
+
+
+Where should I put Documentation?
+---------------------------------
+
+The README
+""""""""""
+
+Basic **How To** Documentation should go into a README file in each repo:
+
+1. A high level summary of what the code in the repo does ("This code is ... ")
+
+2. Licensing and community information ("This is developed by ONF as a part of
+   the FOO project, and licensed under Apache-2")
+
+3. High level dependencies required ("Go version 1.17.x is needed to...")
+
+4. Examples of how to build the code ("Run ``make build`` to create a binary
+   named ...")
+
+5. Examples of how to run the code ("The output binary can be found in and run
+   with ...")
+
+6. How the code is tested ("Your code should pass ``make test``")
+
+Generally this should be fairly short and easy to reference
+
+Design Documents
+""""""""""""""""
+
+Design Documents concern the Why ...
+
+One option is to place these in the code repo
+
+
+Tutorials
+"""""""""
+
+Operations Guides
+"""""""""""""""""
+
+These show a user **How** to use a project and software.  Generally these
+should be located in a documentation repo, not stored with code.
