+## ⚡️ Quick start
 
-## What is XCP-ng?
+Download [the ISO here](https://mirrors.xcp-ng.org/isos/8.2/xcp-ng-8.2.1.iso?https=1), and [install it](https://xcp-ng.org/#easy-to-install) on your own hardware.
 
-XCP-ng is a virtualization platform based on **Xen Source** and **Citrix® Hypervisor** (formerly XenServer).
-XCP-ng stands for **Xen Cloud Platform - New Generation** and is a *tribute* to the old Open Source project XCP, which was abandoned when XenServer was open-sourced in 2013. 
+## 📚 Documentation
 
-### Genesis
+The official documentation is available at https://xcp-ng.org/docs
 
-* 2003 : Xen project birth, first open source hypervisor
-* 2007 : Xen Source Inc. acquired by Citrix, birth of XenServer (closed source) 
-* 2010 : Citrix strategy focused on virtual desktop (XenApp/XenDesktop) instead of server virtualization
-* 2011 : XCP 1.0 (Xen Cloud Platform, Open Source XenServer)
-* 2013 : XenServer becomes Open (end of XCP). Birth of Xen Orchestra
-* 2017 (Dec) : Citrix changes their pricing strategy regarding XenServer and removes essential features from free XenServer versions. New features developed are (mostly) no longer open source
-* 2018 (Jan) : XenServer forked, birth of XCP-ng
-* 2019 (Jul): XCP-ng 8.0 is released
