+This is an exemplar project designed to showcase best practices in developing scientific software as part of the ReCode Project at Imperial College London. 
+
+**You do not need to know or care about Markov Chain Monte Carlo for this to be useful to you.**
+
+Rather this project is primarily designed to showcase the tools and practices available to you when developing scientific softare projects. Maybe you are a PhD student just starting or a researcher just about to embark on a larger scale softare project there should be something intersting here for you.
+
+## How to use this repo
+
+Take a look at a the table of contents below and see if there are any topics that might be useful to you. The actual code lives in `./code` and the documentation in `./learning`
+
+## Table of contents
+1. [A short introduction][intro]
+2. The problem
+3. A quick and dirty solution
+4. Planning out a larger software project
+5. Python development environnments: Pip, Conda, setup.py and all that.
+6. Test driven development: it's fun.
+7. Using Jupyter Notebooks during development
