+<h2>Introduction to the guide</h2>
+
+<p>Throughout the guide, we follow the following rules:</p>
+<ul>
+	<li>all commands are tested in BASH;</li>
+	<li>FreeRDP repository folder is located in <code>$HOME/freerdp</code>;</li>
+	<li>Remmina repository folder is located in <code>$HOME/remmina</code>.</li>
+	<li>when building FreeRDP or Remmina, we always create a <code>build</code> subfolder where we actually build the program.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>TODO: Add a note on distros vs package managers (possible add a list of distros to the package managers) that when changing distros, the package managers are changed too, but when changing the package manager, the distro is left untouched.</p>
+
+<p>You can help by keeping this document updated and adding info about other distributions. You can simply edit the document, but you are required to sign up and log in.</p>
+
 <h2>Guide configuration</h2>
 
 <p>Below you can configure the guide for the specified distribution and/or package manager. You can also specify a Remmina version, as the guide may differ from version to version. By default, the guide contains a general guide for all tested operating systems for the latest stable Remmina version, while the differences are output using tabs.</p>
