+
+A python library to create and use mzQC files. Specifically, the library facilitates access to 
+mzQC files in form of a **directly usable object representation of mzQC** and offers additional 
+functionality to:
+* serialise
+* deserialise
+* check syntax
+* check semantics
+* file-info
+* experimental file-merging
+
+**The library follows the formats versioning** (which is 'v(Major).(Minor).(Patch)').
+
+This library implements python modules for (de-)serialisation and validity checks of the [PSI fileformat](http://www.psidev.info/groups/quality-control) [**mzQC**](https://hupo-psi.github.io/mzQC/). Find the specification document, examples, and and further documentation there.
+
+
+## Install
+
+### Latest Release
+Most people will want to install the latest release version of pymzqc. Please install pymzqc via [**pypi**](https://pypi.org/project/pymzqc/): 
+```
+pip install pymzqc
+```
+
+### From Git
+If you want a development version, use: 
+```
+pip install -U git+https://github.com/MS-Quality-hub/pymzqc.git#v1.0.0rc2
+```
+You can select a development branch of your choice by changing the command after the `.git#`
+
+### Containers
+However, we recommend using the ready-built [**containers**](https://quay.io/repository/mwalzer/pymzqc?tab=tags) to check out the latest updates.
+
+## Online docs
+To get a nice and simple overview of how pymzqc works, visit [here](https://pymzqc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html). 
+If you've successfully installed the library and want to **jump right in and work on the library**, we suggest a peek at the [codestructure](https://pymzqc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/codestructure.html).
+
+If you however just want to get your toes wet, or use it as-is, have a look at the interactive guides (below).
+
+### Interactive pymzqc
+Have a go with our [interactive python notebooks](jupyter/README.md) to explore what is possible.
+
+## Development 
+Contributions are welcome! (Just fork, develop, and open PR.)
+
+### Repository structure
+The python package's code is located in the `mzqc` folder, continuous testing code in `tests`, the documentation in `doc`. The libray-**use** container descriptions are in `containers`, if you want a container for library-**development**, you can use the container description within `.devcontainer`, more development presets can be found in `.vscode`. The `jupyter` and `accessories` folders are subprojects making use of the library. See their README in the respective sub-folders.
+
+### Documentation
+The code documentation style convention is of the type `Sphinx/numpy`.
