+Getting Started with GeckoView
+######################################
+
+How to use GeckoView in your Android app.
+
+*Building a browser? Check out* `Android Components <https://mozilla-mobile.github.io/firefox-android/>`_, *our collection of ready-to-use support libraries!*
+
+The following article is a brief guide to embedding GeckoView in an app. For a more in depth tutorial on getting started with GeckoView please read the article we have published on `raywenderlich.com <https://www.raywenderlich.com/1381698-android-tutorial-for-geckoview-getting-started>`_.
+
+.. contents:: :local:
+
+Configure Gradle
+=================
+
+You need to add or edit four stanzas inside your module's ``build.gradle`` file.
+
+**1. Set the GeckoView version**
+
+*Like Firefox, GeckoView has three release channels: Stable, Beta, and Nightly. Browse the* `Maven Repository <https://maven.mozilla.org/?prefix=maven2/org/mozilla/geckoview/>`_ *to see currently available builds.*
+
+.. code-block:: groovy
+
+    ext {
+        geckoviewChannel = <channel>
+        geckoviewVersion = <version>
+    }
+
+
+**2. Add Mozilla's Maven repository**
+
+.. code-block:: groovy
+
+    repositories {
+        maven {
+            url "https://maven.mozilla.org/maven2/"
+        }
+    }
+
+
+**3. Java 11 required support**
+
+As GeckoView uses some Java 11 APIs, it requires these compatibility flags:
+
+.. code-block:: groovy
+
+    compileOptions {
+        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_11
+        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_11
+    }
+
+**4. Add GeckoView Implementations**
+
+.. code-block:: groovy
+
+    dependencies {
+        // ...
+      implementation "org.mozilla.geckoview:geckoview-${geckoviewChannel}:${geckoviewVersion}"
+    }
+
+Add GeckoView to a Layout
+==========================
+
+Inside a layout ``.xml`` file, add the following:
+
+.. code-block:: xml
+
+    <org.mozilla.geckoview.GeckoView
+        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
+        android:id="@+id/geckoview"
+        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
+        android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
+
+Initialize GeckoView in an Activity
+====================================
+
+**1. Import the GeckoView classes inside an Activity:**
+
+.. code-block:: java
+
+    import org.mozilla.geckoview.GeckoRuntime;
+    import org.mozilla.geckoview.GeckoSession;
+    import org.mozilla.geckoview.GeckoView;
+
+
+**2. Create a ``static`` member variable to store the ``GeckoRuntime`` instance.**
+
+.. code-block:: java
+
+    private static GeckoRuntime sRuntime;
+
+**3. In that activity's** ``onCreate`` **function, add the following:**
+
+.. code-block:: java
+
+    GeckoView view = findViewById(R.id.geckoview);
+    GeckoSession session = new GeckoSession();
+
+    // Workaround for Bug 1758212
+    session.setContentDelegate(new GeckoSession.ContentDelegate() {});
+
+    if (sRuntime == null) {
+      // GeckoRuntime can only be initialized once per process
+      sRuntime = GeckoRuntime.create(this);
+    }
+
+    session.open(sRuntime);
+    view.setSession(session);
+    session.loadUri("about:buildconfig"); // Or any other URL...
+
+You're done!
+==============
+
+Your application should now load and display a webpage inside of GeckoView.
+
+To learn more about GeckoView's capabilities, review GeckoView's `JavaDoc <https://mozilla.github.io/geckoview/javadoc/mozilla-central/>`_ or the `reference application <https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/mobile/android/geckoview_example>`_.
