+# Introduction to Cachet
+
+This document is a brief breakdown of what Cachet is, why it was built and how it works. Each section is explained in more detail within other pages.
+
+## What is Cachet?
+
+Cachet is a status page used for informing your customers/employees/developers with any updates or issues affecting your service and the individual components which make it up.
+
+For example, if you're running an online store, you may have the following components powering it:
+
+- Stripe (payments)
+- Storefront (website)
+- CDN
+- API
+
+If your API breaks, developers may want to know what's going on as their integrations will have broken. You can easily update the status of the component and then create a new incident explaining the issue. As you progress through to rectifying the issue you can create more incidents with a new status. Eventually you'll have fixed the issue and your service status banner will turn green.
+
+## Why build it?
+
+Originally built by [James Brooks](http://james-brooks.uk/cachet/), Cachet was a solution to a problem. Whilst there was [StatusPage.io](https://statuspage.io), it's an expensive service for the [small service](http://anorakci.com) that was being built at the time.
+
+Since Cachet is open source, **anybody** can run it and anybody can contribute to it. Contributions make software better and having the freedom to fork and improve upon it means it'll be forever improving.
+
+## How does it work?
+
+Cachet is built upon two core concepts:
+
+- [Components](#components)
+- [Incidents](#incidents)
+
+Here we'll break down these concepts and how they work together. Cachet also uses metrics, however they're an optional feature of Cachet that can be unused without affecting anything.
+
+### Components
+
+A component is setup for each of the core, individual parts to a service or product, for instance;
+
+- API
+- Website
+- CDN
+- Payments
+
+In the future Cachet will be able to create third-party components directly for things like:
+
+- GitHub
+- Stripe
+- Intercom
+- Desk.com
+
+And automatically update the status based on their current service status.
+
+### Incidents
+
+Incidents are individual to components but come pre-designed to be linked against one of them, this background feature is ready for third-party components which will be coming later on.
+
+An incident is a status update containing a title, message and readable status.
