# What is this book about ?

[02-Starting with the basic configuration](02-Starting with the basic configuration.md)
Hi, welcome and thanks for your interest in my Zabbix book. I wrote a few books a few years ago when i started with Zabbix.
As Zabbix is an opensource product and making money out of the book was never my intention it got me thinking.
How to make a new book without using a publisher like I had done before.
After a while I came up with the idea to make a book that would be free and that would be updated when new versions came out.
Since I am a huge fan of documetation in markdown or asciidoc i came up with the idea to share the book in git and use markdown.

The book will try to cover all the topics feel free to let me know if something is missing or feel free to make a pull request.
There is no need to start from page 1 and read the book till the end. Some people will be looking for basic knowledge others might want to skip to the fun part so I want the book to be useful for everyone. Therefor I will try to explain as good as possible in every topic the exact steps needed to reproduce.

There will be moments in the book where you need to type some code, I will show the commands you need to type in a box just like here.

# some command
