+# C language Family Front-end
+
+Welcome to Clang. 
+
+This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages (C, C++ and Objective-C) which is built as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project.
+
+Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of different           source-level tools. One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.
+
+If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read the relevant websites. Here are some pointers:
