+about
+-----
+
+raylib is a simple and easy-to-use library to learn C videogames programming.
+
+raylib is highly inspired by Borland BGI graphics lib (more specifically WinBGI) and by XNA framework. 
+Allegro and SDL have also been analyzed for reference.

+
+history
+-------
+
+I've developed videogames for some years and last year I had to taught videogames development 
+to young people with artistic profile, most of them had never written a single line of code.
+
+I started with C language basis and, after searching for the most simple and easy-to-use library to teach 
+videogames programming, I found WinBGI; it was great and it worked very well with students, in just a 
+couple of weeks that people that had never written a single line of code were able to program (and understand) 
+a simple PONG and some of them even a BREAKOUT!
+
+But WinBGI was not the clearer and most organized lib. There were a lot of things I found useless and 
+confusing and some function names were not clear enough for most of the students; not to mention points 
+like no transparencies support or no hardware acceleration. 
+
+So, I decided to create my own lib, hardware accelerated, clear function names, quite organized, well structured, 
+plain C coding and, the most important, primarily intended to LEARN videogames programming.
+
+I've coded quite a lot in C# and XNA and I really love it (in fact, my students learn C# with XNA after C), 
+so, I decided to use C# language notation and XNA naming conventions. That way, students can jump from 
+raylib to XNA (or MonoGame) extremely easily.
+
+raylib started as a weekend project and after three months of hard work, here it is the first version. 
+
+Enjoy it.
+
+features
+--------
+
+   * Written in plain C code (C99)
+   * Uses C# PascalCase/camelCase notation
+   * Hardware accelerated using OpenGL 1.1
+   * Transparencies support (RGBA Colors)
+   * Custom color palette for better use on white background
+   * Basic 3D Support (camera, basic models, OBJ models, etc)
+   * Powerful Text module with SpriteFonts support
+
+raylib uses on its core module the outstanding [GLFW3] (http://glfw.org/) library. The best option by far I found for 
+window/context and input management (clean, focused, great license, well documented, modern, ...). 
+
+raylib is licensed under a zlib/libpng license like GLFW3. View [LICENSE] (link to license file).
+
+tool requirements
+------------------
+
+raylib has been developed using exclusively two tools: 
+
+   * Notepad++ (text editor) - [http://notepad-plus-plus.org/](http://notepad-plus-plus.org/)
+   * MinGW (GCC compiler) - [http://www.mingw.org/](http://www.mingw.org/)
+   
+Those are the tools I recommended to develop with raylib, actually, my students develop using this tools. 
+I believe those are the best tools to train spartan-programmers.
+
+Someone could argue about debugging. raylib is a library intended for learning and I think C it's a clear enough language
+to allow writing small-mid size programs with a printf-based debugging. All raylib examples have also been written this way.
+
+building
+--------
+
+raylib could be build with the following command lines (Using GCC compiler):
+
+	cd raylib/src
+	gcc -c core.c -std=c99 -Wall
+	gcc -c shapes.c -std=c99 -Wall
+	gcc -c textures.c -std=c99 -Wall
+	gcc -c stb_image.c -std=c99 -Wall
+	gcc -c text.c -std=c99 -Wall
+	gcc -c models.c -std=c99 -Wall
+	gcc -c vector3.c -std=c99 -Wall
+	gcc -c audio.c -std=c99 -Wall
+	ar rcs raylib.a core.o shapes.o textures.o stb_image.o text.o models.o vector3.o audio.o
+
+To compile examples, make sure raylib.h is placed in include path and libraries raylib (libraylib.a) and glfw3 (libglfw3.a) 
+are placed in the libraries path. It's also recommended to link with file icon.o for fancy raylib icon usage.
+
+	cd raylib/src/examples
+	gcc -o test_code.exe test_code.c icon.o -lraylib -lglfw3 -lopengl32 -lgdi32 -std=c99 -Wl,--subsystem,windows
