# Tools

URL: https://tfw.how/tools/
Description: Pages for specific products, each in one tool class, with steps to set up and maintain one topic's surface in that product.

A tool is a specific product, such as Slack or Jira. Each tool belongs to one [tool class](/tool-classes/), and the class page gives the role, the naming pattern, and the rules that apply to every product in that class. The page for a tool shows how to set up and maintain one topic's surface in that product.

The list below shows each tool and its class. Products that do not have a page here follow the rules of their class.
