+![xterm.js build status](https://api.travis-ci.org/sourcelair/xterm.js.svg) [![Gitter](https://badges.gitter.im/sourcelair/xterm.js.svg)](https://gitter.im/sourcelair/xterm.js?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge)
+
+Xterm.js is a terminal front-end component written in JavaScript that works in the browser.
+
+It enables applications to provide fully featured terminals to their users and create great development experiences.
+
+## Features
+- **Text-based application support**: Use xterm.js to work with applications like `bash`, `git` etc.
+- **Curses-based application support**: Use xterm.js to work with applications like `vim`, `tmux` etc.
+- **Mouse events support**: Xterm.js captures mouse events like click and scroll and passes them to the terminal's back-end controlling process
+- **CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) character support**: Xterm.js renders CJK characters seamlessly
+- **IME support**: Insert international (including CJK) characters using IME input with your keyboard
+- **Self-contained library**: Xterm.js works on its own. It does not require any external libraries like jQuery or React to work
+- **Modular, event-based API**: Lets you build addons and themes with ease
+
+## What xterm.js is not
+- Xterm.js is not a terminal application that you can download and use on your computer
+- Xterm.js is not `bash`. Xterm.js can be connected to processes like `bash` and let you interact with them (provide input, receive output)
+
+## Real-world uses
+Xterm.js is used in several world-class applications to provide great terminal experiences.
+
+- [**SourceLair**](https://www.sourcelair.com/): In-browser IDE that provides its users with fully-featured Linux terminals based on xterm.js
+- [**Microsoft Visual Studio Code**](http://code.visualstudio.com/): Modern, versatile and powerful open source code editor that provides an integrated terminal based on xterm.js
+
+Do you use xterm.js in your application as well? Please [open a Pull Request](https://github.com/sourcelair/xterm.js/pulls) to include it here. We would love to have it in our list.
+
+## Browser Support
+
+Since xterm.js is typically implemented as a developer tool, only modern browsers are supported officially. Here is a list of the versions we aim to support:
+
+- Chrome 48+
+- Edge 13+
+- Firefox 44+
+- Internet Explorer 11+
+- Opera 35+
+- Safari 8+
+
+Xterm.js works seamlessly in Electron apps and may even work on earlier versions of the browsers but these are the browsers we strive to keep working.
+
+## Demo
+
+To launch the demo simply run:
+
+```
+npm install
+npm start
+```
+
+Then open http://0.0.0.0:3000 in a web browser (use http://127.0.0.1:3000 if running under Windows).
+
+## Addons
+
+Addons are JavaScript modules that attach functions to the `Terminal` prototype to extend its functionality. There are a handful available in the main repository in the `addons` directory, you can even write your own (though they may break when the internals of xterm.js change across versions).
+
+To use an addon, just include the JavaScript file after xterm.js and before the `Terminal` object has been instantiated. The function should then be exposed on the `Terminal` object:
+
+```html
+<script src="node_modules/dist/xterm.js"></script>
+<script src="node_modules/addons/fit/fit.js"></script>
+```
+
+```js
+var xterm = new Terminal();
+// init code...
+xterm.fit();
+```
+
+## Releases
+
+Xterm.js follows a monthly release cycle roughly.
+
+The existing releases are available at this GitHub repo's [Releases](https://github.com/sourcelair/xterm.js/releases), while the roadmap is available as [Milestones](https://github.com/sourcelair/xterm.js/milestones).
+
+## Development and Contribution
+
+Xterm.js is maintained by [SourceLair](https://www.sourcelair.com/) and a few external contributors, but we would love to receive contributions from everyone!
+
+To contribute either code, documentation or issues to xterm.js please read the [Contributing document](CONTRIBUTING.md) before.
+
+The development of xterm.js does not require any special tool. All you need is an editor that supports JavaScript and a browser (if you would like to run the demo you will need Node.js to get all features).
+
+It is recommended though to use a development tool that uses xterm.js internally, to develop for xterm.js. [Eating our own dogfood](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eating_your_own_dog_food) has been proved extremely beneficial for this project. Known tools that use xterm.js internally are:
+
+#### [SourceLair](https://www.sourcelair.com)
+
+Visit https://lair.io/sourcelair/xterm and follow the instructions. All development will happen in your browser.
+
+#### [Visual Studio Code](http://code.visualstudio.com/)
+
+[Download Visual Studio Code](http://code.visualstudio.com/Download), clone xterm.js and you are all set.
