+# PrimAITE
+
+## About The Project
+PrimAITE (**PrimAITE**) simulation environment for training AI under the ARCD programme.It incorporates the functionality required
+of a Primary-level environment, as specified in the Dstl ARCD Training Environment 
+
+**PrimAITE** is currently under a closed development stage. 
+
+## What's PrimAITE built with
+
+- [OpenAI's Gym](https://gym.openai.com/)
+- [Networkx](https://github.com/networkx/networkx)
+- [Stable Baselines 3](https://github.com/DLR-RM/stable-baselines3)
+- [Rllib (part of Ray)](https://github.com/ray-project/ray)
+
+
+## Getting Started with PrimAITE
+
+### Pre-Requisites
+
+In order to get **PrimAITE** installed, you will need to have the following installed:
+
+- `python3.8+`
+- `python3-pip`
+- `virtualenv`
+
+**PrimAITE** is designed to be OS-agnostic, and thus should work on most variations/distros of Linux, Windows, and MacOS.
+
+### Installation from source
+#### 1. Navigate to the PrimAITE folder and create a new python virtual environment (venv)
+
+```unix
+python3 -m venv <name_of_venv>
+```
+
+#### 2. Activate the venv
+
+##### Unix
+```bash
+source <name_of_venv>/bin/activate
+```
+
+##### Windows
+```powershell
+.\<name_of_venv>\Scripts\activate
+```
+
+#### 3. Install `PrimAITE` into the venv along with all of it's dependencies
+
+```bash
+python3 -m pip install -e .
+```
+
+This will install all the dependencies including algorithm libraries. These libraries
+all use `torch`. If you'd like to install `tensorflow` for use with Rllib, you can do this manually
+or install `tensorflow` as an optional dependency by postfixing the command in step 3 above with the `[tensorflow]` extra. Example:
+
+To see all PrimAITE dependencies have a look at the dependencies page (:ref:`Dependencies`)
+
+```bash
+python3 -m pip install -e .[tensorflow]
+```
+### Development Installation
+To install the development dependencies, postfix the command in step 3 above with the `[dev]` extra. Example:
+
+```bash
+python3 -m pip install -e .[dev]
+```
