+Quick Start Guide
+=================
+
+This is a brief overview on how to get started right away with your own PyAnsys library on the `PyAnsys GitHub Organization`_
+
+#. **Create the Repository:** Create a new repository from the
+   `pyansys/template`_.  See
+   `Creating a repository from a template`_.  Be sure to start as a
+   private repository.
+
+#. **Rename the Package:** Rename ``ansys/product/library`` to match
+   your product or library.  For example ``ansys/mapdl/core``.  Do the
+   same in ``setup.py``.  Do this as a pull request.  In fact, only add
+   code as pull requests (don't push to main).
+
+#. **Add Source:** Add your source files to
+   ``ansys/<product>/<library>``, or create them.  At the same time,
+   add unit tests to ``tests/`` following the `pytest`_ convention.
+   Be sure to maintain sufficient coverage when adding your library.
+   See `pytest-cov`_.
+
+   .. note::
+      If your tests require an active service,
+      application, or product, be sure to setup this application to run
+      in an automated manner.
+
+#. **Documentation:** Update documentation at ``doc/``.  There are two
+   types of docs, User-Guide and API.  Be sure that both are updated.
+   See :ref:`api_documentation`.
+
+#. **Package Release:** When ready to release your package publicly,
+   contact [email protected] to obtain the release
+   checklist in regards to official Ansys approval.  Once the
+   checklist is complete, change the `repository visibility`_,
+   create a release branch.
+
+The manner of the source and content of the documentation will vary
+from project to project.
