Note
This version of the guide covers the new PHP-based rendering of Documentation with the TYPO3 Documentation theme.
If the project you are looking at has a file Documentation/guides.xml it is using the new rendering.
Otherwise, consider to migrate the Documentation or head over to the legacy version of this guide: How to document, Sphinx based.
