+## Philosophy
+
+We aim at providing the simplest possible entry into the Elastic stack for anybody who feels like experimenting with
+this powerful combo of technologies. This project's default configuration is purposely minimal and unopinionated. It
+does not rely on any external dependency or custom automation to get things up and running.
+
+Instead, we believe in good documentation so that you can use this repository as a template, tweak it, and make it _your
+own_. [sherifabdlnaby/elastdocker][elastdocker] is one example among others of project that builds upon this idea.
