+
+`CherryPy <http://www.cherrypy.org>`_ is a pythonic, object-oriented web framework.
+
+CherryPy allows developers to build web applications in much the 
+same way they would build any other object-oriented Python program. 
+This results in smaller source code developed in less time.
+
+CherryPy is now more than ten years old and it is has proven to 
+be fast and reliable. It is being used in production by many 
+sites, from the simplest to the most demanding.
+
+A CherryPy application typically looks like this:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   import cherrypy
+   
+   class HelloWorld(object):
+       @cherrypy.expose
+       def index(self):
+           return "Hello World!"
+
+   cherrypy.quickstart(HelloWorld())
+
+In order to make the most of CherryPy, you should start
+with the :ref:`tutorials <tutorials>` that will lead you through the most common
+aspects of the framework. Once done, you will probably want to 
+browse through the :ref:`basics <basics>` and :ref:`advanced <advanced>` 
+sections that will demonstrate how to implement certain operations. 
+Finally, you will want to carefully read the configuration and 
+:ref:`extend <extend>` sections that go in-depth regarding the 
+powerful features provided by the framework.
+
+Above all, have fun with your application!
