+Introduction
+************
+
+The Gudhi library (Geometry Understanding in Higher Dimensions) is a generic
+open source `C++ library <http://gudhi.gforge.inria.fr/doc/latest/>`_, with a
+`Python interface <http://gudhi.gforge.inria.fr/python/latest/>`_, for
+Computational Topology and Topological Data Analysis
+(`TDA <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological_data_analysis>`_).
+The GUDHI library intends to help the development of new algorithmic solutions
+in TDA and their transfer to applications. It provides robust, efficient,
+flexible and easy to use implementations of state-of-the-art algorithms and
+data structures.
+
+The current release of the GUDHI library includes:
+
+* Data structures to represent, construct and manipulate simplicial complexes.
+* Algorithms to compute persistent homology and multi-field persistent homology.
+* Simplication of simplicial complexes by edge contraction.
+
+All data-structures are generic and several of their aspects can be
+parameterized via template classes. We refer to :cite:`gudhilibrary_ICMS14`
+for a detailed description of the design of the library.
