+# Developer guides
+
+The purpose of the Developer guides documentation is to get you acquainted with Dokka's internals so that you can 
+start developing your own plugins or contributing features and fixes to Dokka itself.
+
+If you want to start hacking on Dokka right away, the only thing you need to be aware of is the
+[general workflow](workflow.md): it will teach you how to build, debug and test Dokka locally.
+
+[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) contains information that can be useful 
+if you want to contribute to Dokka.
+
+If you want to get into plugin development quick, see
+[Introduction to plugin development](plugin-development/introduction.md).
+
+If you have time to spare and want to know more about Dokka's internals, its architecture and capabilities, follow
+[Architecture overview](architecture/architecture_overview.md) and subsequent sections inside `Internals`.
+
+Having read through all the developer guides, you'll have a pretty good understanding of Dokka and how to develop
+for it. 
+
+If you have any questions, feel free to get in touch with maintainers via [Slack](community/slack.md) or 
+[GitHub](https://github.com/kotlin/dokka).
