+# Rust-101
+
+This documents Rust-101, a tutorial for the [Rust
+language](http://www.rust-lang.org/). You are probably looking for the
+[actual tutorial](https://www.ralfj.de/projects/rust-101/main.html).
+
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+You can either read through the sources in `src/`, or generate the
+HTML in `docs/` using `make docs` (this step needs
+[Pycco](https://fitzgen.github.io/pycco/)), or go directly to [the
+rendered output](https://www.ralfj.de/projects/rust-101/main.html).
+
+The files `workspace/src/part*.rs` are generated by `make workspace`.
+
+Source, License
+---------------
+
+You can find the sources in the [git
+repository](http://www.ralfj.de/git/rust-101.git) (also available [on
+GitHub](https://github.com/RalfJung/rust-101)).  They are provided
