        yotta is a tool that we're building at [mbed](https://mbed.org), to make it
        easier to build better software written in C, C++ or other C-family languages.
        It's still early in development, so if you have questions/feedback or issues,
        please [report them](https://github.com/ARMmbed/yotta/issues).
        
        ### Installation
        yotta is written in
        [python](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-279/), and is
        installed using [pip](http://pip.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installing.html).
        Install yotta itself by running:
        
        ```bash
        pip install yotta
        ```
        
        **Note that yotta needs several non-python dependencies to be installed
        correctly in order to do anything useful.** Please follow the **[detailed
        installation instructions](http://docs.yottabuild.org/#installing)** on the
        yotta docs website to ensure you have a working installation.
        
        Exactly which other dependencies (such as compilers and other build tools) are
        required will also depend on the [yotta target
        description](http://docs.yottabuild.org/tutorial/targets.html) that you intend
        to use, so please be sure to also check the target description's own
        documentation.
        
        ### Get Started!
        The best way to get started is to [follow the
        tutorial](http://docs.yottabuild.org/tutorial/tutorial.html).
        
        ### What `yotta` does
        yotta downloads the software components that your program depends on. It's
        similar in concept to npm, pip or gem: although because C and C++ are compiled
        languages, yotta also controls the build of your software in order to ensure
        downloaded modules are available to use in your code.
        
        To install a new module, you run `yotta install --save <modulename>`, and yotta
        will install both the module you've specified and any of its dependencies that
        you don't already have installed. It will also update your module's description
        file to reflect the new dependency.
        
        The best way to really understand how yotta works is to [follow the
        tutorial](http://docs.yottabuild.org/tutorial/tutorial.html).
        
        ### Further Documentation
        For further documentation see the [yotta docs](http://docs.yottabuild.org)
        website.
        
        ### Tips
         * `yt` is a shorthand for the `yotta` command, and it's much quicker to type!
         * yotta is strongly influenced by [npm](http://npmjs.org), the awesome node.js
           software packaging system. Much of the syntax for module description and
           commands is very similar.
