### Structure of Docs

There are a number of sections you can access to learn more about the project - each section has an overview page just like this one to further explain what you can find there, and you can also use the `Search` feature or sidebar to navigate around:

* [](https://docs.natsec.io/about "mention") (where you currently are) explains the basics of this project and associated features.
* The [frequently-asked-questions](https://docs.natsec.io/frequently-asked-questions "mention") section does just what you might expect: identifies and answers common questions we receive about the project.
* [release-notes](https://docs.natsec.io/release-notes "mention") are the updates we make to the project over time so you can understand where changes take place (and also planned features).
* We use the [workflow](https://docs.natsec.io/workflow "mention") section to document step-by-step instructions and tutorials for each segment of the project to increase sustainability by making it easy to contribute.
* Lastly, [education](https://docs.natsec.io/about/goals/education "mention") captures key elements underpinning the project, some of which are referenced elsewhere as foundational - great references.

### Navigation

There are a few different ways to navigate this guide:

* Use the `Sidebar` to scroll through and expand different sections
* Click on `Links` to different sections in order to hop right there
* Type something into `Search` and check out the results
