 Welcome to nebulizer's documentation!
 =====================================
 
+**Nebulizer is a Python utility which provides a high-level
+interactive command-line interface to remotely administer
+Galaxy servers.**
+
+It enables admin operations to be performed via the command
+line, as an alternative to using a Galaxy instance's web
+interface.
+
+It was developed as a tool to help "part-time" Galaxy admins
+perform day-to-day administrative tasks across multiple
+Galaxy instances.
+
+Nebulizer is built on top of Bioblend and complements the
+more powerful but lower-level interfaces offered by Ephemeris
+and Parsec.
