+===
+
+[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/h2o/picotls.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/h2o/picotls)
+
+Picotls is a [TLS 1.3](https://tlswg.github.io/tls13-spec/) implementation written in C.
+
+At the moment, the library implements draft-22 of the specification, including support 0-RTT resumption using PSK or PSK-DHE.
+
+Primary goal of the project is to create a fast, tiny TLS 1.3 implementation that can be used with the HTTP/2 protocol stack and possibly the upcoming QUIC stack of the [H2O HTTP/2 server](https://h2o.examp1e.net).
+
+Picotls only implements the communination protocol; cryptographic operations are delegated to cryptographic engines.
+At the moment, _minicrypto_ binding (uses [cifra](https://github.com/ctz/cifra/) and [micro-ecc](https://github.com/kmackay/micro-ecc)) and _openssl_ binding are provided.
+
+License and algorithms supported by the bindings are as follows:
+
+| Binding | License | Key Exchange | Certificate | AEAD cipher |
+|:-----:|:-----:|:-----:|:-----:|:-----:|
+| minicrypto | [CC0](https://github.com/ctz/cifra/) / [2-clause BSD](https://github.com/kmackay/micro-ecc) | secp256r1, x25519 | ECDSA (P256)<sup>1</sup> | AES-128-GCM |
+| OpenSSL | OpenSSL | secp256r1 | RSA, ECDSA (P256) | AES-128-GCM |
+
+Note 1: Minicrypto binding is capable of signing a handshake using the certificate's key, but cannot verify a signature sent by the peer.
+
+Building picotls
+---
+
+If you have cloned picotls from git then ensure that you have initialised the submodules:
+```
+% git submodule init
+% git submodule update
+```
+
+Build using cmake:
+```
+% cmake .
+% make
+% make check
+```
+
+A dedicated documentation for using picotls with Visual Studio can be found in [WindowsPort.md](WindowsPort.md).
+
+Developer documentation
+---
+
+Developer documentation should be available on [the wiki](https://github.com/h2o/picotls/wiki).
+
+Using the cli command
+---
+
+Run the test server (at 127.0.0.1:8443):
+```
+% ./cli -c /path/to/certificate.pem -k /path/to/private-key.pem 127.0.0.1 8443
+```
+
+Connect to the test server:
+```
+% ./cli 127.0.0.1 8443
+```
+
+Using resumption:
+```
+% ./cli -s session-file 127.0.0.1 8443
+```
+The session-file is read-write.
+The cli server implements a single-entry session cache.
+The cli server sends NewSessionTicket when it first sends application data after receiving ClientFinished.
+
+Using early-data:
+```
+% ./cli -s session-file -e 127.0.0.1 8443
+```
+When `-e` option is used, client first waits for user input, and then sends CLIENT_HELLO along with the early-data.
+
+License
+---
+
+The software is provided under the MIT license.
+Note that additional licences apply if you use the minicrypto binding (see above).
