+
+What is grok?
+=============
+
+Grok is a smashing web framework based on `Zope Toolkit`_ technology.
+
+.. _`Zope Toolkit`: http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit
+
+Grok uses the Component Architecture and builds on Zope 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.
+
+You can find out much more about Grok at our http://grok.zope.org
+website.
+
+Who is grok?
+============
+
+Grok is a friendly caveman from the Stone Age.  He has a big club that
+he hunts mammoths with.  He will also use this club to smash anything
+he doesn't like.
+
+"ME GROK SMASH ZCML!"
+
+Getting grok
+============
+
+The easiest way to get started with grok is to install the
+`grokproject <http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/grokproject>`_ package
+(e.g. via ``easy_install grokproject``) and then create a new project
+area by calling the ``grokproject`` script like so::
+
+  $ grokproject MyProject
+  ... many lines of output here
+
+This will create a project area in ``MyProject`` as well as download
+and install grok.
+
+You can also get grok from the subversion repository::
+
+  svn co svn://svn.zope.org/repos/main/grok/trunk grok
+
+Then follow the instructions of ``INSTALL.txt``.
