+# Vapor Quickstart
+
+This document assumes that the appropriate version of Swift is installed for Vapor. Right now, this is visible on the [vapor](https://github.com/qutheory/vapor#-environment) section of the repository.
+
+You can run the following to check compatibility:
+
+```bash
+curl -sL check.qutheory.io | bash
+```
+
+> If you'd prefer to use our built in tool, you can find information [here](install-toolbox.md)
+
+## Make new project using SwiftPM
+
+Open your terminal
+
+> For our example, we'll be using the Desktop folder.
+
+```bash
+cd ~/Desktop
+mkdir HelloVapor
+cd HelloVapor
+swift package init --type executable
+```
+
+Your folder should look like this:
+
+```
+├── Package.swift
+├── Sources
+│   └── main.swift
+└── Tests
+```
+
+## Edit `Package.swift`
+
+Open your `Package.swift` file:
+
+```bash
+open Package.swift
+```
+
+And add Vapor as a dependency. Here's how your file will look.
+
+#### Package.swift
+
+```Swift
+import PackageDescription
+
+let package = Package(
+    name: "HelloVapor",
+    dependencies: [
+        .Package(url: "https://github.com/qutheory/vapor.git", majorVersion: 0, minor: 15)
+    ]
+)
+```
+
+> We try to keep this document up to date, however, you can view latest releases [here](https://github.com/qutheory/vapor/releases)
+
+## Edit `main.swift`
+
+A simple hello world:
+
+```
+import Vapor
+
+let drop = Droplet()
+
+drop.get("/hello") { _ in
+  return "Hello Vapor"
+}
+
+try drop.serve()
+```
+
+## Build and Run
+
+The first `build` command can take a while to fetch dependencies.
+
+```
+swift build
+.build/debug/HelloVapor
+```
+
+> If different, replace `HelloVapor` above with the name of your executable.
