-Introduction
-============
-
-This is the documentation for the Sphinx documentation builder. Sphinx is a
-tool that translates a set of reStructuredText_ source files into various output
-formats, automatically producing cross-references, indices, etc. That is, if
-you have a directory containing a bunch of reST-formatted documents (and
-possibly subdirectories of docs in there as well), Sphinx can generate a
-nicely-organized arrangement of HTML files (in some other directory) for easy
-browsing and navigation. But from the same source, it can also generate a PDF
-file using LaTeX.
-
-The focus is on hand-written documentation, rather than auto-generated API docs.
-Though there is support for that kind of documentation as well (which is
-intended to be freely mixed with hand-written content), if you need pure API
-docs have a look at `Epydoc `_, which also
-understands reST.
-
-For a great "introduction" to writing docs in general -- the whys and hows, see
-also `Write the docs`_, written by Eric Holscher.

-Conversion from other systems
------------------------------
-
-This section is intended to collect helpful hints for those wanting to migrate
-to reStructuredText/Sphinx from other documentation systems.
-
-* Gerard Flanagan has written a script to convert pure HTML to reST; it can be
- found at the `Python Package Index `_.
-
-* For converting the old Python docs to Sphinx, a converter was written which
- can be found at `the Python SVN repository
- `_. It contains generic
- code to convert Python-doc-style LaTeX markup to Sphinx reST.
-
-* Marcin Wojdyr has written a script to convert Docbook to reST with Sphinx
- markup; it is at `GitHub `_.
-
-* Christophe de Vienne wrote a tool to convert from Open/LibreOffice documents
- to Sphinx: `odt2sphinx `_.
-
-* To convert different markups, `Pandoc `_ is
- a very helpful tool.

-Use with other systems

-See the :ref:`pertinent section in the FAQ list `.

-
-Prerequisites
--------------
-
-Sphinx needs at least **Python 3.5** to run.
-It also depends on 3rd party libraries such as docutils_ and jinja2_, but they
-are automatically installed when sphinx is installed.
