+**Welcome to Glistix!** [Glistix](https://github.com/glistix/glistix) is a **fork of the compiler for the Gleam language** which adds a **Nix backend,** so that you can **compile Gleam code into Nix** and **use it in your configurations!**
+
+This allows you to leverage Gleam's **type-safety** and **simplicity** to write reasonable and more correct code. You will also be able to use **Gleam's tooling** in your favor, such as unit tests and easy package management.
 
 This book aims to explain many core concepts related to Glistix, possibly helping you use it more effectively for your projects.
