 # Modeling Nonlinear Systems
 
-In this example, we will go one step deeper and showcase the direct function
-generation capabilities in ModelingToolkit.jl to build nonlinear systems.
-Let's say we wanted to solve for the steady state of an ODE. This steady state
-is reached when the nonlinear system of differential equations equals zero.
-We use (unknown) variables for our nonlinear system.
+ModelingToolkit.jl is not only useful for generating initial value problems (`ODEProblem`).
+The package can also build nonlinear systems.
+This is, for example, useful for finding the steady state of an ODE.
+This steady state is reached when the nonlinear system of differential equations equals zero.
+
+!!! note
+    
+    The high level `@mtkmodel` macro used in the
+    [getting started tutorial](@ref getting_started)
+    is not yet compatible with `NonlinearSystem`.
+    We thus have to use a lower level interface to define nonlinear systems.
+    For an introduction to this interface, read the
+    [programmatically generating ODESystems tutorial](@ref programmatically).
