 Welcome to Open edX Events' documentation!
 ============================================
 
+Open edX Events is type of hook in the Hooks Extension Framework that allows extending the Open edX platform in a more stable and maintainable way. If you're new to this approach for extending Open edX, start by reading the :doc:`docs.openedx.org:developers/concepts/hooks_extension_framework` documentation. This documentation provides an overview of the framework's concepts and structure useful to support your adoption of Open edX Events.

 Overview

-As mentioned in the Hooks Extension Framework overview, Open edX Events can be used to integrate application components with each other or with external services, allowing them to communicate, synchronize, and perform additional actions when specific triggers occur.

+As mentioned in the :doc:`docs.openedx.org:developers/concepts/hooks_extension_framework` docs, Open edX Events can be used to integrate application components with each other or with external services, allowing them to communicate, synchronize, and perform additional actions when specific triggers occur.
 
 To illustrate the different solutions that can be implemented with this approach, we have compiled a list of use cases built using Open edX Events to address various challenges. The goal of this list is to serve as a reference for extension developers to implement their own solutions in their own plugins or IDAs based on the community's experience.
