+Hacking and Development
+=======================
+
+libcamera is developed as a free software project and welcomes contributors.
+Whether you would like to help with coding, documentation, testing, proposing
+new features, or just discussing the project with the community, you can join
+our official public communication hannels, or simply check out the code.
+Mailing List
+
+We use a public mailing list as our main mean of communication. You can find
+subscription information and the messages archive on the libcamera-devel list
+information page.
+
+IRC Channel
+-----------
+
+For informal and real time discussions, our IRC channel on Freenode is open to
+the public. Point your IRC client to #libcamera to say hello, or use the `WebChat`_.
+
+.. _WebChat: https://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=%23libcamera&uio=d4
+
+Source Code
+-----------
+
+libcamera is in early stages of development, no releases are available yet. The
+source code is available from the project's git tree, hosted by LinuxTV.
+
+  $ git clone git://linuxtv.org/libcamera.git
+
+Documentation
+-------------
+
+Project documentation is created using `Sphinx`_.  Source level documentation
+is currently planned to utilise Doxygen integration.  Please use this in your
+development.
+
+Sphinx integration with Doxygen will be with either `Breathe`_ or `Exhale`_

+.. LibCamera documentation master file, created by

+   contain the root `toctree` directive.

+LibCamera abstraction library
+=============================
+
+Cameras are complex devices that need heavy hardware image processing
+operations. Control of the processing is based on advanced algorithms that must
+run on a programmable processor. This has traditionally been implemented in a
+dedicated MCU in the camera, but in embedded devices algorithms have been moved
+to the main CPU to save cost. Blurring the boundary between camera devices and
+Linux often left the user with no other option than a vendor-specific
+closed-source solution.
+
+To address this problem the Linux media community has very recently started
+collaboration with the industry to develop a camera stack that will be
+open-source-friendly while still protecting vendor core IP. libcamera was born
+out of that collaboration and will offer modern camera support to Linux-based
+systems, including traditional Linux distributions, ChromeOS and Android.
