+Getting Started
+---------------
+
+We advise new users start by reading the :doc:`Architecture <architecture>`
+documentation first in order to understand Kayobe's various components.
+
+For users wishing to learn interactively we recommend starting at either
+the :doc:`all-in-one overcloud <development/automated>` deployment or
+the :ref:`'A Universe From Nothing' <a-universe-from-nothing>`
+deployment guide.
+
+Once familiar with Kayobe's constituent parts, move on to the
+:doc:`Installation <installation>` section to prepare a baremetal environment
+and then :doc:`Deployment <deployment>` to deploy to it.
+
+* :doc:`Architecture <architecture>` - The function of Kayobe's host and
+  networking components

+  installing Kayobe
+* :doc:`Usage <usage>` - An introduction to the Kayobe CLI
