+# NewDot
+
+The official API for interfacing with FamilySearch using Apple technologies.
+
+## Installation
+
+Clone NewDot into your project as a Git submodule, then clone the other sub-submodules that NewDot depends on:
+
+	git submodule add git@github.com:NSError/NewDot.git vendor/NewDot
+	cd vendor/NewDot
+	git submodule init
+	git submodule update
+
+Add the NewDot project to your Xcode project workspace; under your application's Build Phases tab, add "NewDot" as a Target Dependency. To your project add the linker flags `-all_load -ObjC` to ensure that categories are loaded correctly. Finally, ensure that you add `$(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR)` (non-recursive) to your User Header Search Paths.
+
+You should now be linking against the NewDot library. The headers are accessed using a prefix. For example, if I wanted to import `NDService.h`, I would import `NewDot/NDService.h`.
+
+## Licensing
