+Dear community,
+
+Some time ago we started working with Akka and Spray, and it has been awesome! The more we learned, the more we wanted
+to use these toolkits, and it didn't take long until our coworkers started experimenting as well, I guess that's what
+happens when you find something that brings more joy than usual to everyday coding.
+
+As the prototypes turned into applications a concern started to rise: how are we going to monitor this applications on
+production? Throwing our default monitoring tool at the apps gave us an empty dashboard with no metrics at all and
+acquiring another monitoring tool wasn't an option. What did we do?, we started building something that could fill all
+the blanks.
+
+Let me tell you that learning how to use Akka/Spray and at the same time developing a tool for monitoring apps made on
+top of that is not the way to go! We found many issues on the way and realize that we were not alone, many people was
+facing the same problems we had, and after all the community has given to all of us during many years, why don't we make
+something that can benefit not just us but all developers using Akka and Spray? Then Kamon was born.
+
+Kamon is already being used by many teams close to us, and some people from around the globe gave Kamon a try and seem
+to be happy with it, we hope now that you can try Kamon and let us know what you think and how we can make Kamon better.
+We are currently short on documentation, but feel free to ask anything you need through the mailing list! more docs are
+on the oven.
+
+So, what are you waiting for? go and learn about [tracing in Kamon](/core/traces/) and [get started](/get-started/)
+right now!
