-## Get the code
+This bundle is part of the [Symfony Content Management Framework (CMF)](http://cmf.symfony.com/)
+and licensed under the [MIT License](LICENSE).
 
+The Symfony CMF Standard Edition (SE) is a distribution of the CMF based on all
+the main components needed for most common use cases.
 
-    curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php --
-    php composer.phar create-project --stability dev symfony-cmf/standard-edition path/to/install
+## Requirements
 
-This will fetch the main project and all it's dependencies.
+* Symfony 2.3.x
+* See also the `require` section of [composer.json](composer.json)
 
-The next step is to setup the database, if you want to use Sqlite as your database backend just go ahead and run the following:
 
-    app/console doctrine:database:create
-    app/console doctrine:phpcr:init:dbal
-    app/console doctrine:phpcr:repository:init
-    app/console doctrine:phpcr:fixtures:load
+## Documentation
 
-If you prefer to use another database backend, for example MySQL, run the Symfony configurator (point your browser 
-to /web/config.php) or set your database connection parameters in app/config/parameters.yml. Make sure you leave
-the 'database_path' property at 'null' in order to use another driver than SQLite. Leaving the field blank in the
-web-configurator should set it to 'null'.
+For the install guide and reference, see:

-Functional tests are written with PHPUnit. Note that Bundles and Components are tested independently.
+Unit and/or functional tests exist for this bundle. See the

-## Configuration
-
-You can use the same steps as for the Symfony2 Standard Edition to check and configure the application:
-https://github.com/symfony/symfony-standard#2-checking-your-system-configuration
-
-Note that if you want to improve performance you can enable the caching system:
-https://github.com/symfony-cmf/symfony-cmf-standard/blob/master/app/config/parameters.yml#L10
-
-This will enable caching of storage API lookups into the file system. However it can easily be
-configured to instead use any of the caching backends supported by Doctrine Common and exposed
-by LiipDoctrineCacheBundle:
