# Welcome!

Welcome to the site hosting runbooks for alerts shipped with
[kube-prometheus](https://github.com/prometheus-operator/kube-prometheus) project.

## Reason

Kube-prometheus was always meant to provide the complete monitoring solution for kubernetes environments. The project
already includes a lot of various components to fullfill this goal and one crucial part is including alerting rules.
However what good are those alerting rules when one don't know what to do when the alert fires?

## Goal

We aim to ship meaningful runbook for every alert in kube-prometheus project and provide enough insight to help
kube-prometheus users during incidents.

## How to contribute?
