Jupyter Book is a distribution of the MyST Document Engine. Every Jupyter Book is also a MyST project, and building a Jupyter Book means building a MyST project. In fact, if you’re a power user and prefer a more flexible and less-opinionated workflow, we suggest you use the MyST engine directly!
For learning how to use Jupyter Book, this site will step you through high-level concepts, tutorials for step-by-step learning, and how-to guides to get things done. It will focus on use-cases for multi-document projects, like community knowledge bases and multi-page books.[1]
The Get Started guide covers basic steps to learn the basics of using Jupyter Book.
The Tutorials cover key workflows and concepts in more depth.

The MyST Guide is the reference for the full-suite of features provided by the MyST Engine that powers Jupyter Book.
The Jupyter Book and MyST documentation follow the Diataxis documentation framework. Within that framework, we aim for jupyterbook.org to contain tutorials and how-to guides, and the MyST guide to focus on reference documentation and deeper explanation.
