-The GIT repo for the GoSDN design and implementation. GoSDN is intended to be controller for Software Defined Networks (SDN) that follows a modern software architecture design and a well-documented implementation in the go language. 
+# Overview
 
-## Generate Code Stubs
+`goSDN` is also an application that will allow you to manage your multi-vendor network using one unified controller.
 
-YANG code stubs are located in the `yang-processor` directory. They are generated by calling `go generate` from their respective sub directories.
-```
-gosdn
-+-- yang-processor
-    +-- ciena       //Ciena code stubs
-    +-- tapi        //TAPI code stubs
-+-- yang            //All YANG modules 
+`goSDN` provides:
+* Model driven device representation
+* Native multi vendor support
+* Multi controller environments
+
+# Concepts
+
+The `goSDN` core - also called `nucleus` - is a lightweight library that manages principal network domains and provides southbound interface operations for orchestrated networking devices.
+
+## Principal Networking Domain (PND)
+
+The PND is the single source of truth within a network. Its state is held and maintained by the controller. Any configuration of an OND has to be applied by the PND.
+
+## Orchestrated Networking Device (OND)
+
+Any device directly configured by `goSDN`
+
+# Installing
+You can install `goSDN` locally using the `go get` command. Since the repository and some dependencies are not publicly available you have to modify your git config first:
+```sh
+> git config --global url."git@code.fbi.h-da.de:".insteadOf "https://code.fbi.h-da.de"
+> go get code.fbi.h-da.de/cocsn/gosdn/cmd/gosdn
 ```
+Now you can start `goSDN` locally using the `gosdn` command or [use the  CLI](#using-the-cli) to interact with a running `goSDN` instance.
+
+# Getting Started
+## k8s
+
+We have an instance of `goSDN` for each the latest master and current develop branch running on the department's k8s cluster. These endpoints can be accessed using the `gosdn cli` command. If anything breaks please file an [issue](https://code.fbi.h-da.de/cocsn/gosdn/-/issues/new).
+
+## Using the CLI
+
+The `gosdn cli` command allows you to interact with a running `goSDN` controller. Use `gosdn help cli` to print the available commands and flags.
+
+## Example
