 Quickstart
 ==========
 
+The instructions below assume that you have already set-up a working project
+using fpm, CMake or Meson as build system. If you are not familiar with any of
+these build systems, visit the `Fortuno documentation
+<https://fortuno.readthedocs.io>`_ for a step-by-step guide starting from
+scratch.
+
+In the examples above, we will assume that your library has a module ``mylib``,
+which provides a function ``factorial()`` for calculating the factorial of
+integers. Adapt those names to your actual library and routine names.
