+Authmaker provides simple tools for building backend applications with secure authentication and payment processing - all designed to work with Ember straight out of the box.
+
+## Using Authmaker
+
+New to backend development? No problem! Authmaker was designed to be an inclusive platform. While basic familiarity with Javascript and Ember _is_ recommended, our mission is to make fullstack development straightforward, painless, and productive.
+
+Consider yourself a backend whiz? Authmaker lets you develop your APIs faster, without sacrificing customization. Focus on building your app's unique functionality and features, not boilerplate config and security standards.
+
+We believe that you shouldn't need to be a security expert in order to build secure web apps. Authmaker lets you focus on **your application**, not authentication. Authmaker's opinionated curriculum provides you with a fullstack solution that _works_ - no messy configuration, no treacherous learning curve.
+
+## The Authmaker curriculum
+
+Authmaker was designed as part of a fullstack curriculum meant to help you build and deploy apps faster.

+Before you start building with Authmaker, make sure you have the following packages installed on your computer:
+
 #### Ember.js
 
 Authmaker is built to work with [Ember.js](https://emberjs.com) applications. These guides will show you how to take an existing Ember application and use Authmaker to easily implement authentication and build your backend server and database. Authmaker is meant to be beginner friendly, but assumes a working knowledge of building with Ember and Javascript. The Ember [guides](https://guides.emberjs.com) are a fantastic resource for all Ember-related questions.
