# Documentation

## Basics

The main Nagios Plugins documentation is split into two parts:

1. **[Manual Pages][man]**  
   This part provides documentation for each individual plugin.

2. **[FAQ][faq]**  
   The FAQ section offers additional information on the Nagios Plugins
   package as a whole.

## Advanced Topics

These documents cover specific topics that go beyond the basics:

* **[Extra-Opts][opts]**  
  Telling plugins to read options from a configuration file.

* **[Writing Perl Plugins][video]**  
  This is a video that shows how to write your own check using the
  [Nagios::Plugin][module] Perl module.

* **[Nagios Plugin Development Guidelines][guidelines]**  
  Reference documentation for plugin developers.
