+`Examples.jl` is a package that, based on a single source file, generates markdown,
+for e.g. [Documenter.jl](https://github.com/JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl),
+[Jupyter notebooks](http://jupyter.org/) and uncommented scripts for documentation
+of your package.

 # [**6.** Interaction with Documenter.jl](@id Interaction-with-Documenter)
 
-TBW
+`Examples.jl` can be used for any purpose, it spits out regular markdown files,
+and notebooks. Typically, though, these files will be used to render documentation
+for your package. The generators ([`Examples.markdown`](@ref), [`Examples.notebook`](@ref)
+and [`Examples.script`](@ref)) supports a keyword argument `documenter` that lets
+the generator perform some extra things, keeping in mind that the generated files will,
+eventually, be used with Documenter.jl. So lets take a look at what will happen
+if we set `documenter = true`:
+
+[`Examples.markdown`](@ref):
+- The default code fence will change from
+  ````
+  ```julia
+  # code
+  ```
+  ````
+  to Documenters `@example` blocks:
+  ````
+  ```@examples $(name)
+  # code
+  ```
+  ````
+- The following `@meta` block will be added to the top of the markdown page,
+  which redirects the "Edit on GitHub" link on the top of the page to the
+  *source file* rather than the generated `.md` file:
+  ````
+  ```@meta
+  EditURL = "$(relpath(inputfile, outputdir))"
+  ```
+  ````
+
+[`Examples.notebook`](@ref):
+- Documenter style `@ref`s and `@id` will be removed. This means that you can use
+  `@ref` and `@id` in the source file without them leaking to the notebook.
