- Concepts: what monitors, incidents, heartbeats, and escalations actually are.
- Tutorials: end-to-end recipes you can complete in one sitting.
- How-to guides: task-focused steps for common operations.
- Reference: exhaustive API and configuration tables.
- Troubleshooting: symptom-first answers to the most common issues.
