+
+### What is this repository for? ###
+
+* Quick summary
+
+This is a Python wrapper for the Avalanche Tcl API.
+It is designed to provide the same Tcl API functionality for Python.
+All commands and attributes should be identical to the Tcl API, but with a Python "flavor".
+This functionality is enabled by placing a Python translation layer on top of the Tcl API. The Python translation layer converts the user's Python commands into their corresponding Tcl equivalent, and also converts the Tcl API response.
+
+### How do I get set up? ###
+
+The code is hosted here: 
+    https://github.com/canadianjeans/avalanche
+
+You can download a copy of the library directly:
+    https://github.com/canadianjeans/avalanche/archive/master.zip
+
+Or use PyPI:
+    pip install avalancheapi
+
+* Summary of set up
+    PyPI should automatically install the module. However, if you download the Zip file, extract the archive in the desired location. You will need to point your Python script to this location.
+        e.g. sys.path.append('/home/somebody/spirent/avalancheapi')       
+
+* Dependencies
+    OS:            Any OS supported by the Avalanche API
+    Python:        2.7.x and 3.x 
+    Tcl:           8.4 or 8.5.x (ActiveTcl is recommended)
+    Tcl Libraries: msgcat, tcllib1.15+, tbcload and Tclx (not included)
