-# MPSDynamics.jl Documentation
+# Introduction
+
+The `MPSDynamics.jl` package provides an easy to use interface for performing tensor network simulations on matrix product states (MPS) and tree tensor network (TTN) states.
+Written in the Julia programming language, `MPSDynamics.jl` is a versatile open-source package providing a choice of several variants of the Time-Dependent Variational Principle (TDVP) method for time evolution. 
+The package also provides strong support for the measurement of observables, as well as the storing and logging of data, which makes it a useful tool for the study of many-body physics. 
+The package has been developed with the aim of studying non-Markovian open system dynamics at finite temperature using the state-of-the-art numerically exact Thermalized-Time Evolving Density operator with Orthonormal Polynomials Algorithm (T-TEDOPA) based on environment chain mapping.
+However the methods implemented can equally be applied to other areas of physics.
