+Servant tutorial
+================
+
+This is an introductory tutorial to the current version of *servant*, which is **0.4**. Any comment or issue can be directed to [this website's issue tracker](http://github.com/haskell-servant/haskell-servant.github.io/issues).

+
+Introduction
+-------------
+
+*servant* has the following guiding principles:
+
+- concision
+
+   This is a pretty wide-ranging principle. You should be able to get nice
+   documentation for your web servers, and client libraries, without repeating
+   yourself. You should not have to manually serialize and deserialize your
+   resources, but only declare how to do those things *once per type*. If a
+   bunch of your handlers take the same query parameters, you shouldn't have to
+   repeat that logic for each handler, but instead just "apply" it to all of
+   them at once. Your handlers shouldn't be where composition goes to die. And
+   so on.
+
+- flexibility
+
+   If we haven't thought of your use case, it should still be easily
+   achievable. If you want to use templating library X, go ahead. Forms? Do
+   them however you want, but without difficulty. We're not opinionated.
+
+- separation of concerns
+
+   Your handlers and your HTTP logic should be separate. True to the philosphy
+   at the core of HTTP and REST, with *servant* your handlers return normal
+   Haskell datatypes - that's the resource. And then from a description of your
+   API, *servant* handles the *presentation* (i.e., the Content-Types). But
+   that's just one example.
+
+- type safety
+
+   Want to be sure your API meets a specification? Your compiler can check
+   that for you. Links you can be sure exist? You got it.
+
+To stick true to these principles, we do things a little differently than you
+might expect. The core idea is *reifying the description of your API*. Once
+reified, everything follows. We think we might be the first web framework to
+reify API descriptions in an extensible way. We're pretty sure we're the first
+to reify it as *types*.
+
+To be able to write a webservice you only need to read the first two sections,
+but the goal of this document being to get you started with servant, we also
+cover the couple of ways you can extend servant for a great good.
