+## Overview
+
+In the Jan application, engines serve as primary entities with the following capabilities:
+
+- Engine will be installed through `inference-extensions`.
+- Models will depend on engines to do [inference](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inference_engine).
+- Engine configuration and required metadata will be stored in a json file.
+
+## Folder Structure
+
+- Default parameters for engines are stored in JSON files located in the `/engines` folder.
+- These parameter files are named uniquely with `engine_id`.
+- Engines are referenced directly using `engine_id` in the `model.json` file.
+
+```yaml
+jan/
+    engines/
+        nitro.json
+        openai.json
+        .....
+```
+
+## Engine Default Parameter Files
+
+- Each inference engine requires default parameters to function in cases where user-provided parameters are absent.
+- These parameters are stored in JSON files, structured as simple key-value pairs.
+
+### Example
+
+Here is an example of an engine file for `engine_id` `nitro`:
+
+```js
+{
+    "ctx_len": 512,
+    "ngl": 100,
+    "embedding": false,
+    "n_parallel": 1,
+    "cont_batching": false
+    "prompt_template": "<|im_start|>system\n{system_message}<|im_end|>\n<|im_start|>user\n{prompt}<|im_end|>\n<|im_start|>assistant"
+}
+```
+
+For detailed engine parameters, refer to: [Nitro's Model Settings](https://nitro.jan.ai/features/load-unload#table-of-parameters)
+
+## Adding an Engine
+
+- Engine parameter files are automatically generated upon installing an `inference-extension` in the Jan application.
