+Welcome to the Crossplane documentation. Crossplane is a control plane framework
+for platform engineering. 
 
-<br />
+# Using the documentation
 
-Crossplane is an open source Kubernetes extension that transforms your Kubernetes 
-cluster into a **universal control plane**. 
+Crossplane organizes its documentation into the following sections:
 
-Crossplane lets you manage anything, anywhere, all through standard Kubernetes
-APIs. Crossplane can even let you 
-[order a pizza](https://blog.crossplane.io/providers-101-ordering-pizza-with-kubernetes-and-crossplane/) 
-directly from Kubernetes. If it has an API, Crossplane can connect to it. 
+* [What's Crossplane?]({{<ref "whats-crossplane">}}) introduces Crossplane
+  and explains why you should use it.
 
-With Crossplane, platform teams can create new abstractions and custom
-APIs with the full power of Kubernetes policies, namespaces, role based access
-controls and more. Crossplane brings all your non-Kubernetes resources under
-one roof.
+* [Get Started]({{<ref "get-started">}}) explains how to install Crossplane and
+  create a control plane.
 
-Custom APIs, created by platform teams, allow security and compliance
-enforcement across resources or clouds, without exposing any complexity to the
-developers. A single API call can create multiple resources, in multiple clouds
-and use Kubernetes as the control plane for everything.
+* [Concepts]({{<ref "concepts">}}) introduces Crossplane's key concepts.
 
-{{< hint "tip" >}}
-**What's a control plane?**  
-<!-- vale Google.WordList = NO -->
-Control planes create and manage the lifecycle of resources. Control planes
-constantly _check_ that the intended resources exist, _report_ when the intended
-state doesn't match reality and _act_ to make things right. 
+* [Guides]({{<ref "guides">}}) guide you through common use cases, like
+  monitoring Crossplane or extending it by writing a composition function.
 
-Crossplane extends the Kubernetes control plane to be a **universal control
-plane** to check, report and act on any resource, anywhere. 
-<!-- vale Google.WordList = YES -->
-{{< /hint >}}
+* [CLI Reference]({{<ref "cli">}}) documents the `crossplane` command-line
+  interface that you can use to configure a Crossplane control plane.
