## Overview

This repository is a contribution-oriented documentation corpus for SAP Datasphere, not the implementation of the product itself. Contributors use the Help Portal to find pages and suggest edits, or work locally on Markdown in `docs`; accepted contributions are reviewed and may be added to the official documentation. The listed guide topics are represented at a high level; only the Acquiring, Preparing, and Modeling Data documentation subtree is present in the supplied tree.

Main entry points: [`docs`](https://github.com/sap-docs/sap-datasphere/tree/main/docs) (Markdown documentation), [`README.md`](https://github.com/sap-docs/sap-datasphere/blob/main/README.md) (Contribution guidance), [`docs/Acquiring-Preparing-Modeling-Data`](https://github.com/sap-docs/sap-datasphere/tree/main/docs/Acquiring-Preparing-Modeling-Data) (Acquiring and modeling)
