+# Swift Community
+
+Welcome to the Swift for TensorFlow development community!
+
+Swift for TensorFlow is a result of first-principles thinking applied to machine
+learning frameworks, and works quite differently than existing TensorFlow
+language bindings.  Whereas prior solutions are designed within the constraints
+of what can be achieved by a (typically Python or Lua) library, Swift for
+TensorFlow is based on the belief that machine learning is important enough to
+deserve first-class language and compiler support.
+
+First-class language and compiler support allows us to innovate in areas that
+have traditionally been out of bounds for machine learning libraries.  Our
+results provide the performance of TensorFlow graphs with the ease of use of
+define-by-run models, and provides a great user experience - for example, by
+catching more mistakes before you run your code.
+
+## Open Source
+
+As announced at the TensorFlow Developer Summit, we are planning to launch our
+open source project on GitHub in April.  In addition to releasing the code, we
+will be using an open design model, where design discussions happen in public.
+
+Between now and then, we are writing some technical white papers that explain in
+detail the design approach (e.g., the core compiler partitioning technique that
+underlies the whole thing, our approach to automatic differentiation, etc.),
+implementation tradeoffs, and the status of this work.  We can’t wait to engage
+with the broader community, but prefer to start the conversation when these
+white papers are ready.
+
+[Sign up here to join the community Google
+group](https://groups.google.com/a/tensorflow.org/d/forum/swift). We will
+initially use it for announcements, and then open it for general discussion when
+we are ready in April.
