+
+## Abstract
+
+X(cross) Development System (XDS) is set of tools that provide a multi-platform
+for cross development with near-zero installation.
+
+XDS allows you to keep developed application sources locally (on user's machine)
+to make it compatible with existing IT policies (e.g. corporate backup or SCM),
+and let user to continue to work as usual (use its favorite editor,
+keep performance while editing/browsing sources).
+
+The two main blocks that compose XDS are the client part (`xds-agent`) running
+on the user's machine and the server part (`xds-server`) running somewhere in a container or on a server machine (on local network or cloud).
