+[![Chart.js on Slack](https://img.shields.io/badge/slack-Chart.js-blue.svg)](https://chart-js-automation.herokuapp.com/)
+
+## Installation
+
+You can download the latest version of Chart.js from the [GitHub releases](https://github.com/chartjs/Chart.js/releases/latest) or use a [Chart.js CDN](https://cdnjs.com/libraries/Chart.js). Detailed installation instructions can be found on the [installation](./getting-started/installation.md) page.
+
+## Creating a Chart
+
+It's easy to get started with Chart.js. All that's required is the script included in your page along with a single `<canvas>` node to render the chart.
+
+In this example, we create a bar chart for a single dataset and render that in our page. You can see all the ways to use Chart.js in the [usage documentation](./getting-started/usage.md)
+```html
+<canvas id="myChart" width="400" height="400"></canvas>
+<script>
+var ctx = document.getElementById("myChart").getContext('2d');
+var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
+    type: 'bar',
+    data: {
+        labels: ["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"],
+        datasets: [{
+            label: '# of Votes',
+            data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3],
+            backgroundColor: [
+                'rgba(255, 99, 132, 0.2)',
+                'rgba(54, 162, 235, 0.2)',
+                'rgba(255, 206, 86, 0.2)',
+                'rgba(75, 192, 192, 0.2)',
+                'rgba(153, 102, 255, 0.2)',
+                'rgba(255, 159, 64, 0.2)'
+            ],
+            borderColor: [
+                'rgba(255,99,132,1)',
+                'rgba(54, 162, 235, 1)',
+                'rgba(255, 206, 86, 1)',
+                'rgba(75, 192, 192, 1)',
+                'rgba(153, 102, 255, 1)',
+                'rgba(255, 159, 64, 1)'
+            ],
+            borderWidth: 1
+        }]
+    },
+    options: {
+        scales: {
+            yAxes: [{
+                ticks: {
+                    beginAtZero:true
+                }
+            }]
+        }
+    }
+});
+</script>
