+# IDP Builder
+
+Internal development platform binary launcher.
+
+> **WORK IN PROGRESS**: This tool is in a pre-release stage and is under active development.
+
+## About
+
+Spin up a complete internal developer platform using industry standard technologies like Kubernetes, Argo, and backstage with only Docker required as a dependency.
+
+This can be useful in several ways:
+* Create a single binary which can demonstrate an IDP reference implementation.
+* Use within CI to perform integration testing.
+* Use as a local development environment for platform engineers.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Checkout our [documentation website](https://cnoe.io/docs/reference-implementation/installations/idpbuilder) for getting started with idpbuilder.
