+Ansible
+*******
+
+Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles configuration management, application
+deployment, cloud provisioning, ad-hoc task execution, network automation, and multi-node
+orchestration. Ansible makes complex changes like zero-downtime rolling updates with load balancers
+easy. More information on `the Ansible website <https://ansible.com/>`_.
+
+Design Principles
+=================
+
+* Have a dead simple setup process and a minimal learning curve.
+* Manage machines very quickly and in parallel.
+* Avoid custom-agents and additional open ports, be agentless by
+ leveraging the existing SSH daemon.
+* Describe infrastructure in a language that is both machine and human
+ friendly.
+* Focus on security and easy auditability/review/rewriting of content.
+* Manage new remote machines instantly, without bootstrapping any
+ software.
+* Allow module development in any dynamic language, not just Python.
+* Be usable as non-root.
+* Be the easiest IT automation system to use, ever.
+
+Use Ansible
+===========
+
+You can install a released version of Ansible via ``pip``, a package manager, or
+our `release repository <https://releases.ansible.com/ansible/>`_. See our
+`installation guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html>`_ for details on installing Ansible
+on a variety of platforms.
+
+Red Hat offers supported builds of `Ansible Engine <https://www.ansible.com/ansible-engine>`_.
+
+Power users and developers can run the ``devel`` branch, which has the latest
+features and fixes, directly. Although it is reasonably stable, you are more likely to encounter
+breaking changes when running the ``devel`` branch. We recommend getting involved
+in the Ansible community if you want to run the ``devel`` branch.
+
+Get Involved
+============
+
+* Read `Community Information <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community>`_ for all kinds
+ of ways to contribute to and interact with the project, including mailing list information and how
+ to submit bug reports and code to Ansible.
+* Join a `Working Group <https://github.com/ansible/community/wiki>`_, an organized community
+ devoted to a specific technology domain or platform.
+* Submit a proposed code update through a pull request to the ``devel`` branch.
+* Talk to us before making larger changes
+ to avoid duplicate efforts. This not only helps everyone
+ know what is going on, it also helps save time and effort if we decide
+ some changes are needed.
+* For a list of email lists, IRC channels and Working Groups, see the
+ `Communication page <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community/communication.html>`_
+
+Coding Guidelines
+=================
+
+We document our Coding Guidelines in the `Developer Guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/>`_. We particularly suggest you review:
+
+* `Contributing your module to Ansible <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_checklist.html>`_
+* `Conventions, tips and pitfalls <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_best_practices.html>`_
+
+Branch Info
+===========
+
+* The ``devel`` branch corresponds to the release actively under development.
+* The ``stable-2.X`` branches correspond to stable releases.
+* Create a branch based on ``devel`` and set up a `dev environment <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_modules_general.html#common-environment-setup>`_ if you want to open a PR.
+* See the `Ansible release and maintenance <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/release_and_maintenance.html>`_ page for information about active branches.
+
+Roadmap
+=======
+
+Based on team and community feedback, an initial roadmap will be published for a major or minor
+version (ex: 2.7, 2.8). The `Ansible Roadmap page
+<https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/roadmap/>`_ details what is planned and how to influence the
+roadmap.
+
+Authors
+=======

+and has contributions from over 4700 users (and growing). Thanks everyone!
