+Installation instructions
+=========================
+
+The Avro library is written in ANSI C. It uses CMake [1] as its build
+manager.
+
+[1] https://www.cmake.org/
+
+
+Prerequisites
+-------------
+
+Avro uses CMake [1] as its build manager. You must have this installed,
+along with a C compiler (such as gcc) to build the library.
+
+Avro depends on the Jansson JSON parser [2], version 2.3 or higher. On
+many operating systems this library is available through your package
+manager (for example, `apt-get install libjansson-dev` on Ubuntu/Debian,
+and `brew install jansson` on Mac OS). If not, please download and
+install it from source [2].
+
+To build the documentation you need asciidoc [3] and source-highlight [4]
+installed. The build scripts will automatically detect whether these
+tools are installed, and will skip the documentation if they're not.

+
+Building from source
+--------------------
+
+The Avro C library uses CMake as its build manager. In most cases, you
+should be able to build the source code by running the following:
+
+ $ mkdir build
+ $ cd build
+ $ cmake .. \
+ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$PREFIX \
+ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
+ $ make
+ $ make test
+ $ make install
+
+You might have to run the last command using sudo, if you need
+administrative privileges to write to the $PREFIX directory.
+
+The "RelWithDebInfo" build type will build an optimized copy of the
+library, including debugging symbols. Use the "Release" build type if
+you don't want debugging symbols. Use the "Debug" build type if you
+want a non-optimized library, with debugging symbols.
+
+On Mac OS X, you can build a universal binary by setting the
+CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES option when running cmake. Just add something
+like the following:
+
+ -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=i386;x86_64
+
+to the cmake command given above. The set of architectures that you can
+choose from differs depending on which version of OS X you're running;
+common possibilities include "i386", "x86_64", "ppc", and "ppc64".
+
+On Unix, you can request thread-safe versions of the Avro library's
+global functions by defining the THREADSAFE cmake variable. Just add
+the following to your cmake invokation:
+
+ -DTHREADSAFE=true
