+
+Get Started with Kamon
+======================
+
+Kamon is distributed as a core and a set of modules that you include in your application classpath. This modules contain
+all the required pointcuts and advices (yeap, Kamon uses Aspectj!) for instrumenting Akka actors message passing,
+dispatchers, futures, Spray components and much more.
+
+To get started just follow this steps:
+
+
+First: Include the modules you want in your project.
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+All Kamon components are available through Sonatype and Maven Central and no special repositories need to be configured.
+If you are using SBT, you will need to add something like this to your build definition:
+
+```scala
+libraryDependencies += "io.kamon" % "kamon-core" % "0.3.0"
+```
+
+Then, add any additional module you need:
+
+* kamon-core
+* kamon-spray
+* kamon-statsd
+* kamon-newrelic
+
+### Compatibility Notes: ###
+
+* 0.3.x releases are compatible with Akka 2.3, Spray 1.3 and Play 2.3-M1.
+* 0.2.x releases are compatible with Akka 2.2, Spray 1.2 and Play 2.2.
+
+
+Second: Start your app with the AspectJ Weaver
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Starting your app with the AspectJ weaver is dead simple, just add the `-javaagent` JVM startup parameter pointing to
+the weaver's file location and you are done:
+
+```
+-javaagent:/path-to-aspectj-weaver.jar
+```
+
+In case you want to keep the AspectJ related settings in your build and enjoy using `run` from the console, take a look
+at the [sbt-aspectj] plugin.
+
+
+Third: Enjoy!
+-------------
+
+Refer to module's documentation to find out more about core concepts like [tracing], [metrics] and [logging], and learn
+how to report your metrics data to external services like [StatsD], [Datadog] and [New Relic].
