+# virtio-loopback adapter repository
+
+This repository includes the beta version of the "virtio_loopback_adapter" application which is part of the Virtio Loopback Design presented in this [document](https://git.virtualopensystems.com/virtio-loopback/docs/-/blob/master/design_docs). This work carried on by Virtual Open Systems in the [Automotive Grade Linux](https://www.automotivegradelinux.org) community.
+
+As described in the design document, the adapter is only a part of a more complex architecture. If you want to see the implementation and build the other components, refer to the [virtio-loopback docs repository](https://git.virtualopensystems.com/virtio-loopback/docs/-/tree/beta-release).
+
+## Build the virtio-loopback adapter
+
+In order to build this project the next commands need to be used:
+- `make` for x86
+- `make ARCH=arm64` for arm64
+
+**NOTE**: You can also use the parameter "DEBUG=1" in order to enable the debug messages.
+
+Example building the adapter with all the available parameters:
+`make ARCH=arm64 DEBUG=1`
