<h2>1 - Introduction</h2>
<p>Documentation for Everest is formatted in a specific way. This page explains how a page is formatted, and what certain things mean, in as much detail as possible.</p>
<h2>2 - Cards</h2>
<p><strong>2.1 </strong>Introduction</p>
<p>Most Everest documentation pages will contain some type of a "card". Put simply, these are small sections that contain file contents, kernel configurations, warnings, notes, etc. There are 6 types of cards:</p>
<p><strong>2.2 </strong>Note</p>
<p>This card is the most simple. It contains a note on a certain section. They are usually not required to read, but contain important information.</p>

<p><strong>2.3 </strong>Caution</p>
<p>This card is one step up from a note. It contains important information, and should be read. However, it usually isn't urgent, or if it is, it contains things that most would consider common knowledge.</p>
