 What is grok?
 =============
 
-Grok makes it easier to get started with a Zope 3 web application.
+Grok is a smashing web framework based on Zope Toolkit_ technology.
 
-Grok uses the Component Architecture and builds on Zope 3 concepts
-like content objects (models), views, and adapters.  Its simplicity
-lies in using **convention over configuration** and **sensible
-defaults** when wiring components together.  That means neither a
-configuration language like ZCML nor a lot of repetition are needed to
-create a web application with grok.
