-## What's Countly?
-
-[Countly](http://count.ly) is an innovative, real-time, open source mobile analytics and push notifications platform. It collects data from mobile devices, and visualizes this information to analyze mobile application usage and end-user behavior.
-There are two parts of Countly: [the server that collects and analyzes data](http://github.com/countly/countly-server), and mobile SDK that sends this data. Both parts are open source with different licensing terms.

+## Integrating Countly SDK in your projects
 
-First, clone the repository with its submodules:
+Link to the script and call helper methods based on what you want to track: sessions, views, clicks, custom events, user data, etc. and for much more [check out our documentation](https://support.count.ly/hc/en-us/articles/4416163384857-C-).
 
-``` shell
-git clone --recursive https://github.com/Countly/countly-sdk-cpp
-```
+For information about how to add the SDK to your project, please check [this section of the documentation](https://support.count.ly/hc/en-us/articles/4416163384857-C-#adding-the-sdk-to-the-project).
 
-If you want to use SQLite to store session data persistently, build sqlite:
+You can find minimal SDK integration information for your project in [this section of the documentation](https://support.count.ly/hc/en-us/articles/4416163384857-C-#minimal-setup).
 
-``` shell
-# assuming we are on project root
-cd vendor/sqlite
-cmake -D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=1 -B build . # out of source build, we don't like clutter :)
-# we define `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` because sqlite's cmake file compiles statically by default for some reason
-cd build
-make # you might want to add something like -j8 to parallelize the build process
-```
+For an example integration of this SDK, you can have a look [here](https://github.com/Countly/countly-sdk-cpp/tree/master/examples).
 
-The cmake build flow is pretty straightforward:
-
-``` shell
-# assuming we are on project root again
-ccmake -B build . # this will launch a TUI, configure the build as you see fit
-cd build
-make
-```
+This SDK supports the following features:
+* [Analytics](https://support.count.ly/hc/en-us/articles/4431589003545-Analytics)
+* [User Profiles](https://support.count.ly/hc/en-us/articles/4403281285913-User-Profiles)
+* [A/B Testing](https://support.count.ly/hc/en-us/articles/4416496362393-A-B-Testing-)
