Private Credit/ Credit HFs

Lot of info about public equities and PE but I have more recently been getting interested in private credit/ credit HFs. I was wondering if someone could walk me through what private credit and credit investing entails or link a primer? I am in a coverage group so haven't had too much access to the space.
