+== Introduction
+
+Ranch is a socket acceptor pool for TCP protocols.
+
+Ranch aims to provide everything you need to accept TCP connections
+with a small code base and low latency while being easy to use directly
+as an application or to embed into your own.
+
+=== Prerequisites
+
+It is assumed the developer already knows Erlang and has some experience
+with socket programming and TCP protocols.
+
+=== Supported platforms
+
+Ranch is tested and supported on Linux, FreeBSD, OSX and Windows.
+
+Ranch is developed for Erlang/OTP 19+.
+
+Ranch may be compiled on earlier Erlang versions with small source code
+modifications but there is no guarantee that it will work as expected.
+
+=== Versioning
+
+Ranch uses http://semver.org/[Semantic Versioning 2.0.0]
