 # Tutorial Series
 
+Welcome to the Oracle Functions Tutorial Series, the best way to get started with Oracle Functions and serverless computing. In the following
+tutorials, we'll gradually introduce many of the key features of Oracle Functions.
+
 1. [Tutorial 1](examples/tutorial/hello): Learn the basics about sending data into your function
 2. [Tutorial 2](examples/tutorial/params): Learn how to get parameters from a web request
 3. [Tutorial 3](examples/tutorial/hotfunctions): Write your first HotFunction (stays alive to minimze latency between requests)
