+Customizing URI Links in llms.txt
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+By default, the ``llms.txt`` file links to source files in the ``_sources`` directory when available, falling back to HTML pages when sources aren't available.
+You can customize this behavior using URI templates with :confval:`llms_txt_uri_template`:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   # Default: Link to source files, if _sources exists
+   llms_txt_uri_template = "{base_url}_sources/{docname}{suffix}{sourcelink_suffix}"

+Available Template Variables
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Your URI template can use the following variables:
+
+- ``{base_url}`` - The base URL from ``html_baseurl`` configuration (includes trailing slash)
+- ``{docname}`` - The document name (e.g., ``index``, ``guide/intro``)
+- ``{suffix}`` - The source file suffix (e.g., ``.rst``, ``.md``) - may be empty if no source file exists
+- ``{sourcelink_suffix}`` - The suffix from ``html_sourcelink_suffix`` configuration (e.g., ``.txt``)
+
+.. tip::
+   Instead of using the default of linking to ``_sources``, you can generate Markdown and/or reStructuredText files from your documentation and link to those in ``llms.txt``.
+   See :ref:`cmake_workflow` for an example of building both HTML and Markdown and/or reStructuredText in parallel.
+   Note that ``_sources`` is still needed for ``llms-full.txt`` at this time.

+
+CMake Workflow
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This project uses CMake to orchestrate documentation builds across multiple output formats, serving as a simple demo of the functionality.
+This approach enables parallel builds and integrates well with CI/CD platforms like Read the Docs.
+
+Building multiple formats allows you to compare what works best for your docs, as well as allows users to choose which format to feed to their LLM.
+Use :confval:`llms_txt_uri_template` to configure links to point to your preferred format.

+Choosing an Output Format
+-------------------------
 
-1. **Content Collection**: Scans all of your documentation's ``_source`` pages and collects their content
-2. **Directive Processing**: Resolves ``include`` directives by automatically incorporating their content
-3. **Path Resolution**: Transforms relative paths in directives to full paths
-4. **Output Generation**: Creates two optional files:
+By default, **sphinx-llms-txt** requires no additional configuration and links to raw reStructuredText source files created by the HTML builder.
+For optimal LLM support, see the alternative builders below and the :ref:`CMake workflow <cmake_workflow>` for setup.
 
-   - ``llms.txt``: A concise summary of your documentation, in Markdown
-   - ``llms-full.txt``: A comprehensive version with all documentation content, in reStructuredText

+----
+
+This Sphinx project's `llms.txt`_ and `llms-full.txt`_ files as an example of the default output format.
+
+Alternative :ref:`output formats <choosing-output-format>` are also available. For example: `Markdown`_ and `reStructuredText`_.
+
+Highlights
+----------
+
+**Zero Configuration**
+   Add the extension to your ``conf.py`` and you're done.
+   The extension automatically collects your documentation and generates both ``llms.txt`` and ``llms-full.txt`` during your normal Sphinx build.
+
+**Intelligent Content Processing**
+   Automatically resolves ``include`` directives, transforms relative paths, and handles your documentation structure without manual intervention.
+
+**Customizable When Needed**
+   Filter content, include source code files, or integrate with alternative output formats like Markdown for even better LLM compatibility.
+   See :doc:`getting-started` for output format options and :doc:`configuration-values` for all settings.
