 ## What is NeXus?
 
-NeXus is a framework for describing and standardizing experimental data. NeXus provides domain-specific rules for organizing data within files in addition to a dictionary of well-defined domain-specific field concepts. It helps communities to agree on terms to describe their data, acting as a contract on which data has to be present and how to name them in a given dataset.
+NeXus is a data format intended for describing and standardizing experimental data. NeXus provides a specific grammar and syntactic rules via NXDL (NeXus Definition Language) for organizing data within files in addition to a dictionary of well-defined domain-specific field concepts. Since each individual concept is properly documented, it allows communities to agree on terms describing their data. Thus, NeXus acts as a contract on which concepts have to be present and how to name them in a given dataset.
 
 For a more detailed description on the general principles of NeXus we recommend:

 ## What is NOMAD?
 
-Within FAIRmat, we develop **NOMAD**: an open source research data management system for making materials science data searchable and publishable. NOMAD can host all kinds of data from materials science - including, but not limited to, NeXus data.

 ## Does `pynxtools` require NOMAD or NOMAD OASIS?
 
-No. You can use `pynxtools` perfectly fine as a standalone tool for converting data from experiments to NeXus-compliant files. Therefore, this tool acts as the framework to design instances of data within the NeXus universe. The software _can_, however, be used as a **NOMAD plugin** to parse NeXus files, please see the section below for details.
+No. With the available [plugins](./reference/plugins.md) or community-developed plugins, you can use `pynxtools` as a standalone tool for converting raw data from experiments to NeXus-compliant files.
