+# C++ rules for Bazel
+
+This repository contains Starlark implementation of C++ rules in Bazel.
+
+The rules are being incrementally converted from their native implementations in the [Bazel source tree](https://source.bazel.build/bazel/+/master:src/main/java/com/google/devtools/build/lib/rules/cpp/).
+
+For the list of C++ rules, see the Bazel
+[documentation](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/overview.html).
+
+# Getting Started
+
+There is no need to use rules from this repository just yet. If you want to use
+rules\_cc anyway, add the following to your WORKSPACE file:
+
+```
+load("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")
+http_archive(
+    name = "rules_cc",
+    urls = ["https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_cc/archive/TODO"],
+    sha256 = "TODO",
+)
+```
+
+Then, in your BUILD files, import and use the rules:
+
+```
+load("@rules_cc//cc:rules.bzl", "cc_library")
+cc_library(
+    ...
+)
+```
+
+# Migration Tools
+
+This repository also contains migration tools that can be used to migrate your
+project for Bazel incompatible changes.
