General concepts

General Mercury Cloud Concepts

This section of the documentation aims to give the reader a complete overview of Zephyr: which problems it solves, and how it solves them. It won't enter into the specifics on how to implement the described dynamics, which will be done in the section Learn, but will allow anyone to understand what can be done through Zephyr, and how it could be useful in their project.

For a practical introduction to Zephyr, you can start with the quickstart, which walks you through creating a simple program step by step. Alternatively, you can go directly to the Learn section to start implementing your solution. Each chapter in this section is linked to a more detailed and practical explanation.
