+This document
+=============
+
+This is preliminary documentation of how to set up the
+Magic Folder pre-release using a test grid on a single Linux
+or Windows machine, with two clients and one server. It is
+aimed at a fairly technical audience.
+
+For an introduction to Magic Folder and how to configure it
+more generally, see `docs/frontends/magic-folder.rst`_.
+
+It it possible to adapt these instructions to run the nodes on
+different machines, to synchronize between three or more clients,
+to mix Windows and Linux clients, and to use multiple servers
+(if the Tahoe-LAFS encoding parameters are changed).
