-Coding Style (Python)
----------------------
+Documentation can be generated with `make docs` and cleaned up with `make clean-docs`. The resulting files are located in `doc/doxygen/html`; open `index.html` to view the homepage.
 
-Refer to [/test/functional/README.md#style-guidelines](/test/functional/README.md#style-guidelines).
+Before running `make docs`, you will need to install dependencies `doxygen` and `dot`. For example, on MacOS via Homebrew:
+```
+brew install doxygen --with-graphviz
