+Overview
+========
+
+Welcome to the Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) documentation
+"Getting Started" page.
+This page provides you with a brief overview of the AGL Distribution
+and with an introduction to selected topics that can help
+you get a quick start using AGL for development.
+
+What is Automotive Grade Linux?
+-------------------------------
+
+Automotive Grade Linux is a collaborative, open source project
+that brings together automakers, suppliers, and technology companies
+for the purpose of building Linux-based, open source software platforms
+for automotive applications that can serve as de facto industry
+standards.
+
+AGL address all software in the vehicle: infotainment,
+instrument cluster, heads-up-display (HUD), telematics, connected car,
+advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), functional
+safety, and autonomous driving.
+
+Adopting a shared platform across the industry reduces fragmentation
+and allows automakers and suppliers to reuse the same code base, which
+leads to rapid innovation and faster time-to-market for new products.
+
+AGL is a Linux Foundation project and its goals are as follows:
+
+* Build a single platform for the entire industry
+* Develop 70 to 80% of the starting point for a production project
+* Reduce fragmentation by combining the best of open source
+* Develop an ecosystem of developers, suppliers, and expertise
+  that all use a single platform
+
+You can find additional overview information on the
+"[About Automotive Grade Linux](https://www.automotivelinux.org/about)" page.
+You can find information on the AGL Unified Code Base on the
+"[Unified Code Base](https://www.automotivelinux.org/software/unified-code-base)"
+page.
+
+What Can I Do Right Away Using AGL?
+-----------------------------------
+
+The "Getting Started" topics allow you to quickly accomplish some work using
+AGL.
+You can use the "Getting Started" sections to do the following:
+
+* [Set Up a Docker Container](./docker-container-setup.html) to create a
+  contained, controlled development environment for building images and
+  Software Development Kits (SDKs) using AGL.
+
+* [Learn How to Build an AGL Image](./image-workflow-intro.html) by working
+  through fundamental steps that show you how to build for various supported
+  hardware targets (e.g. Raspberry PI boards).
+
+* [Learn How to Create an Application](./app-workflow-intro.html) using the
+  application development workflow.
+
+The AGL community is diverse and supportive.
+You can become an active community member that contributes feedback,
+ideas, suggestions, bugs and documentation.
+
+* Join the IRC conversation using the `#automotive` channel on
+  `irc.freenode.net`.
+
+* Subscribe to the AGL discussions mailing list at
+  [automotive-discussions](http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/automotive-discussions).
+
+* Learn about AGL distribution by visiting the
+  "[AGL Distribution](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/agl-distro)" wiki page.
