How-to Guides
=============
This section includes guides that help you use Isaac Lab. These are intended for users who
have already worked through the tutorials and are looking for more information on how to
use Isaac Lab. If you are new to Isaac Lab, we recommend you start with the tutorials.
.. note::
This section is a work in progress. If you have a question that is not answered here,
please open an issue on our `GitHub page <https://github.com/isaac-sim/IsaacLab>`_.
Importing a New Asset
---------------------
Importing an asset into Isaac Lab is a common task. It contains two steps: importing the asset into
a USD format and then setting up the configuration object for the asset. The following guide explains
