# Guide to Paragon Docs ## AI-Powered Search Have you ever browsed the Training and Documentation (Help) sites for truss software? Did you find what you were looking for? Paragon's Training and Docs sites are equipped with AI-powered search capabilities making it easier to find what you need to be successful using Paragon software. {% embed url="" %} ## Documentation Site Structure Our documentation is split into 4 categories: Tutorials, How-To's, References, and Explanations. ### **Tutorials** **Tutorials** are learning-oriented videos that walk through a series of steps to complete a project of some kind. These pages are oriented towards the *how* rather than the *what*. ### **How-To's** **How-To's** are goal-oriented instructions that take you step-by-step through a task to solve a problem. How-To's generally assume some knowledge and understanding of the software and focus on the task at hand. ### **Reference** **Reference** documentation is information-oriented. Reference material will typically be simple and to the point, containing definitions and descriptions for items in the software. ### **Explanation** **Explanation** documentation is understanding-oriented. The objective of these pages is to take a wider view of the topics within and dive into the nuances of how and why things work as they do. {% hint style="warning" %} The documentation and training modules provided by Paragon are for educational and informational purposes only, are general in nature, and are not intended to conform to all TPI and TPIC standards. In the event that any documentation or training modules do not conform with the TPI or TPIC standard, the standard takes precedence and supersedes any documentation or training modules published to [docs.paragontruss.com](http://docs.paragontruss.com/) or [training.paragontruss.com](http://training.paragontruss.com/). {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
