 ## Introduction
 
-
+This guide is a starting point for developers who wish to build in the Polkadot ecosystem. To get the most from this section: 
+
+1. Identify your development pathway:
+    - [**Parachain Developers**](#parachain-developers) - build, deploy, and maintain custom parachains with the Polkadot SDK
+    - [**Smart Contract Developers**](#smart-contract-developers) - leverage smart contracts and execute custom logic over existing chains to streamline your development process
+    - [**Application Developers**](#application-developers) - leverage Polkadot's underlying protocol features to create solutions for your users to interact with the ecosystem
+2. Use the sections under your pathway as follows:
+    - **Learn** - links connecting you to content to deepen your knowledge and understanding 
+    - **Build** - links connecting you to content to help you build, including goal-oriented guides and step-by-step tutorials
+    - **Tools** - links connecting you to tools commonly used in your pathway
+    - **Resources** - links connecting you to resources for your pathway, including references, code repositories, and outside documentation
 
 ## Development Pathways
 
-Developers can choose from different development pathways to build applications and core blockchain functionality. Each pathway caters to different types of projects and developer skill sets, while complementing one another within the broader network.
