+  Qiita (<i>canonically pronounced cheetah</i>) is an entirely
+  <strong>open-source</strong> microbial study management platform. It allows
+  users to keep track of multiple studies with multiple ‘omics data.
+  Additionally, Qiita is capable of supporting multiple analytical pipelines
+  through a 3rd-party plugin system, allowing the user to have a single entry
+  point for all of their analyses.
+  </p>
+  <p align="justify">
+  Qiita provides database and compute resources to the global community,
+  alleviating the technical burdens that are typically limiting for
+  researchers studying microbial ecology (e.g. familiarity with the command
+  line or access to compute power).
+  </p>
+  <p align="justify">
+  Qiita’s platform allows for quick reanalysis of the datasets that have been
+  deposited using the latest analytical technologies. This means that Qiita’s
+  internal datasets are living data that is periodically re-annotated
+  according to current best practices.
+  </p>
+  <p align="justify">
+  For more information about how to use Qiita, visit the
+  <a href="static/doc/html/index.html">documentation</a>.

+  Note that you should be logged into the system to access any studies and
