A chapter is the beginning of a section of text, leading to sub-chapters that continue that section.
  
  Here's an example of a sub-chapter page:
  The hamburger menu in the top left corner is the main navigation tool. It stores all of the paths to the different chapters in a series of collapsible menus. You only need to click on the menu and click on the chapter title you want to visit. If you're looking for a sub-chapter, click on the arrow beside its corresponding main chapter. For example, to get to the sub-chapter in the picture above, you would click the hamburger menu, click on the arrow to the right of the "CHAPTER 1" option, and click "CHAPTER 1.3".
  
  To the right of the hamburger menu is the recently visited pages menu, represented by an icon that looks like a compass. This keeps track of the pages you have seen in chronological order, and it is an efficient way to jump back to something you had been reading previously.
  
  On the right-hand side of the screen are three white buttons. These are part of the Hypothesis toolbar, which is a great tool for direct annotating. If you would like to add a comment, you can either do so through Hypothesis or scroll to the bottom of any page, where there is a speech bubble icon that opens up a comment window.
  
  To move between the pages in sequence, click on one of the arrows on either side of the page margins. They are also visible in the picture above. Clicking the right arrow will move you to the next page, and clicking on the left arrow will move you to the previous page.
  
  Though the thesis is designed to be read in a linear fashion, this website gives you the capability to jump around and return to specific sections if you feel like it. Take advantage of its flexibility, and use it to experience the project in any form that works best for you. If you would like to start at the beginning, navigate to "INTRODUCTION 0.0". You can use either the link to it at the bottom of this guide or the main navigation tool in the top left corner.
  
  There is also a blue button at the bottom of each page, regardless of it being a chapter or sub-chapter. Like the arrows on the sides of the page, it will lead you forward linearly through the text. It will also tell you when a chapter has no more sub-chapters to read, and it will link you to the next section in the sequence.
  
  Finally, the optional visualizer below represents all of the chapters and their sub-chapters. Each orange circle is a page. Clicking on a page will expand it and reveal any other pages connected to it. If you want to go to a page, click on its title. Note that this is just to understand the shape of the content, and not the main form of navigation through the thesis.
