 # Char
 
+Char is an organizations best friend, it helps with code sharing when either
+using a multi-repo strategy or mono repo. The goal of the project is to
+facilitate sharing of presets and plugins to reduce the required complexity
+developers have to take on.
+
+This project is best suited with a standard library of plugins (which serves the
+function of libraries), as well `kjuulh/bust` which is a platform agnostic
+CI/task setup
+
+This is in very early stages, and for now it officially supports scaffolding.
+
+## Example
+
+The `examples` folder shows how to load plugins, though presets are still
+pending.
+
 ```yaml
 # file: .char.yml
 registry: git.front.kjuulh.io
