+/** \brief Console node factories
+
+    The senf::console::factory namespace (customarily aliased to \c fty in user code) contains
+    factories used to create new node types:
+    \code
+    namespace fty = senf::console::factory;
+
+    senf::console::DirectoryNode & dir (node.add("dirname", fty::Directory()));
+
+    dir.add("name", fty::Command<void(bool)>(&fn)
+                .arg("flag")
+                .doc("documentation"));
+    \endcode
 
+    The node is added by passing the factory instance to senf::console::DirectoryNode::add().
+
+    To further customize the node, you may call attributor members on the temporary factory class
+    instance. Since the attributor members always return a self-reference to the factory class
+    instance, attributor calls may be chained arbitrarily.
+
+    \see
+        \ref console_commands for details on the command nodes \n
+        \ref node_tree for details on the structural nodes (directory, link)
+
+    \note All factories are documented here as classes when in fact some are functions returning
+        internal classes.
+
+    \implementation It is not true, that all attributor members return a self reference. Some
+        attributor members will return a new object of slightly different type. However, the
+        behavior is as documented above.
