+
+After running `zola init`, you should see the following structure in your directory:
+
+
+```bash
+.
+├── config.toml
+├── content
+├── sass
+├── static
+├── templates
+└── themes
+
+5 directories, 1 file
+```
+
+Here's a high-level overview of each of these directories and `config.toml`.
+
+## `config.toml`
+A mandatory Zola configuration file in TOML format.
+This file is explained in detail in the [configuration documentation](@/getting-started/configuration.md).
+
+## `content`
+Contains all your markup content (mostly `.md` files).
+Each child directory of the `content` directory represents a [section](@/content/section.md)
+that contains [pages](@/content/page.md) (your `.md` files).
+
+To learn more, read the [content overview page](@/content/overview.md).
+
+## `sass`
+Contains the [Sass](http://sass-lang.com) files to be compiled. Non-Sass files will be ignored.
+The directory structure of the `sass` folder will be preserved when copying over the compiled files; for example, a file at
+`sass/something/site.scss` will be compiled to `public/something/site.css`.
+
+## `static`
+Contains any kind of file. All the files/directories in the `static` directory will be copied as-is to the output directory.
+If your static files are large, you can configure Zola to [hard link](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_link) them
+instead of copying them by setting `hard_link_static = true` in the config file.
+
+## `templates`
+Contains all the [Tera](https://tera.netlify.com) templates that will be used to render your site.
+Have a look at the [templates documentation](@/templates/_index.md) to learn more about default templates
+and available variables.
+
+## `themes`
+Contains themes that can be used for your site. If you are not planning to use themes, leave this directory empty.
+If you want to learn about themes, see the [themes documentation](@/themes/_index.md).
