+## About
+
+NGINX Gateway Fabric provides an implementation of the [Gateway API](https://gateway-api.sigs.k8s.io/) using [NGINX](https://nginx.org/) as the data plane. The goal of the project is to implement the core Gateway APIs needed to configure an HTTP or TCP/UDP load balancer, reverse proxy, or API gateway for Kubernetes applications.
+
+For a list of supported Gateway API resources and features, see the [Gateway API Compatibility]({{< ref "/ngf/overview/gateway-api-compatibility.md" >}}) documentation.
