+# Declarartive Examples
+
+This folder is a home for snippets, tips and tricks and examples for writing Declarative Pipelines with the
+[Jenkins Pipeline plugin](https://github.com/jenkinsci/workflow-plugin/blob/master/README.md).
+
+# Layout
+
+The repository is broken up into four directories currently:
+
+* *simple-examples* - simple pipelines with one or two stages that illustrate or test a single part of Declarative Pipeline
+* *jenkinsfile-examples* - for examples of using `Jenkinsfile`s checked into repositories.
+
+
+Please put your script into its own directory under the appropriate directory above, with a README.md file included explaining what your script does or shows. Make sure your script is commented so that others can understand how it works, why it works, etc.
