 @section{Part III — The standard library}
 
-A short tour of the standard library. Each module's full reference is its own page under @link["modules/index.html"]{Modules}; the prelude's is still @code{Docs/prelude.org}.
+A short tour of the standard library. Each module's full reference is its own page under @link["modules/index.html"]{Modules}.
+
+@subsection{std/prelude}
+
+The prelude is what every module has without importing anything: the collections and their functions, strings and characters, files and ports, Concurrent ML and scopes, and the macros the language is written with, such as @code{cond}, @code{if-let} and @code{type/derive}. Its reference also covers the builtins, the functions compiled into the runtime rather than written in Bjolang, since every program gets them with the prelude. At the REPL, @code{:show name} prints the same documentation.
+For more details, see @link["modules/std/prelude.html"]{@code{(std prelude)}}.
