6+ ## Introduction
7+
8+ While ` Verso ` is in the early stages of development, it's beneficial to understand why it exists.
9+
10+ There are many browsers on the market already, no doubt. Different visions, different budgets.
11+ It's typically a product, that users get for free... despite the fact it is one of the most important tools they use.
12+ The gateway to the ` World Wide Web ` .
13+
14+ Although, it's only free price-wise. Users usually pay with data, thus they convert themselves to the product.
15+ Many browsers attempt to achieve different goals, and while doing so: play various games.
16+ We are a bit different, ** we don't participate in this market competition, we don't have a play** .
17+
18+ ## ... then what is this about?
19+
20+ We like to say, it's fluid. In the long run, we'd like to offer an alternative to all the competing browsers, sure.
21+ But not the way you imagine. ` Verso ` is an experimental browser, and most probably it will remain as such.
22+
23+ If we would like to compete, then we just could make a new browser based on ` Verso ` , give it a new name, and go!
24+ But instead of it, we focus on the technology.
25+
26+ ## What's the fuss about technology?
27+
28+ ** We love technology** . We are the kind of people, who not settling down for some "okay" solution.
29+ We are looking for the best solutions that the situation allows, and continuously fixing up and improving everything we can.
30+
31+ In this very mindset, [ Rust] and [ Servo] were born more than a decade ago.
32+ Both were developed in tandem, to look for new ways of making the technology scene better.
33+ ` Rust ` is for ensuring memory safety and mitigating other security-critical issues,
34+ while ` Servo ` is for researching new ways to have newer and better approaches for browsers.
35+
36+ And this is what we are doing here too: developing technology that could be a base for many other new things.
37+ If you think about ` Servo ` as a web browser engine based on ` Rust ` ,
38+ then think about ` Verso ` as a web browser framework (based on ` Servo ` )!
39+
40+ ** What you easily could use as a base to ship your own browser** .
41+
42+ ### Contribution
43+
44+ It's still unclear what kind of contributions we are after, but any help is appreciated!

49+ ## Whitepapers
50+
51+ Sometimes, a few whitepapers could pop up.
52+ They are usually about ideas already matured for a while and are part of some future vision.
53+ ...but unless it's over ` v1.0 ` , don't handle it too seriously.
