 Nested-Pandas API with Dask, which enables easy parallelization and capacity 
 for work at scale.
 
+How to Use This Guide
+=====================
 
-Dev Guide - Getting Started
----------------------------
+Begin with the :doc:`Getting Started <gettingstarted/installation>`
+guide to learn the basics of installation and walkthrough a simple example of 
+using nested-dask.
 
-Before installing any dependencies or writing code, it's a great idea to create a
-virtual environment. LINCC-Frameworks engineers primarily use `conda` to manage virtual
-environments. If you have conda installed locally, you can run the following to
-create and activate a new environment.
+The :doc:`Tutorials <tutorials>`
+section showcases the fundamental features of nested-pandas.
 
-.. code-block:: console
+The :doc:`Best Practices <gettingstarted/best_practices>` guide provides a few
+suggestions to avoid common pitfalls with Nested-Dask (and Dask in general).
 
-   >> conda create env -n <env_name> python=3.10
-   >> conda activate <env_name>
-
-
-Once you have created a new environment, you can install this project for local
-development using the following commands:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-   >> pip install -e .'[dev]'
-   >> pre-commit install
-   >> conda install pandoc
-
-
-Notes:
-
-1) The single quotes around ``'[dev]'`` may not be required for your operating system.
-2) ``pre-commit install`` will initialize pre-commit for this local repository, so
-   that a set of tests will be run prior to completing a local commit. For more
-   information, see the Python Project Template documentation on
-   `pre-commit <https://lincc-ppt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/practices/precommit.html>`_.
-3) Installing ``pandoc`` allows you to verify that automatic rendering of Jupyter notebooks
-   into documentation for ReadTheDocs works as expected. For more information, see
-   the Python Project Template documentation on
-   `Sphinx and Python Notebooks <https://lincc-ppt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/practices/sphinx.html#python-notebooks>`_.
+API-level information about nested-pandas is viewable in the 
+:doc:`API Reference <autoapi/index>`
