+## Small-to-medium sites
+
+Hakyll was written to be used for small-to-medium sites. You can do some
+advanced things with it, but don't use it to build a big online shop.
+
+## Hakyll.hs
+
+It should be possible to put all configuration in one file, so data and
+configuration can be strictly separated. In addition, we think this file should
+never exceed a 100 lines of code.
+
+## High-level
+
+Hakyll tries to provide as many high-level functions as possible for common
+tasks, while the lower-level functions should also be accessible. If you think
+you're writing something that can be used for many sites, please send a patch,
+or your `hakyll.hs`, and we will see what we can do.
+
+## Well-documented
+
+A key to being easy-to-use is documentation. That's why we try to provide as
+many working examples as possible. If you ever create a site using hakyll,
+please consider open-sourcing it, as people might be able to learn from your
+code.
