 *This guide is still under active development.*
 
-## TODO
+I made this guide for biologists with moderate programming experience who want to improve the way they work. You'll learn how to organize your projects, use remote resources, create reproducible software environments, and build computational pipelines.
+
+This guide was made with members of the [Bloom lab](https://jbloomlab.org/) in mind. In the future, I might expand this resource to apply to a more general audience.

 ## Developing
 
 To develop **Bench to Byte**, you'll need to set up a few things. Specifically, you'll need two pieces of software: `Node.js` and `npm`. `Node.js` is an environment that allows you to run Javascript code on your computer. `npm` is a package manager that handles the Javascript libraries necessary to create this website.
