-## Install
-
-### From Pypi
-
-The Python agent module is published to [Pypi](https://pypi.org/project/apache-skywalking/), from where you can use `pip` to install:
-
-```shell
-# Install the latest version, using the default gRPC protocol to report data to OAP
-pip install "apache-skywalking"
-
-# Install the latest version, using the http protocol to report data to OAP
-pip install "apache-skywalking[http]"
-
-# Install the latest version, using the kafka protocol to report data to OAP
-pip install "apache-skywalking[kafka]"
-
-# Install a specific version x.y.z
-# pip install apache-skywalking==x.y.z
-pip install apache-skywalking==0.1.0  # For example, install version 0.1.0 no matter what the latest version is
-```
-
-### From Docker Hub
-
-SkyWalking Python agent provides convenient dockerfile and images for easy integration utilizing its auto-bootstrap
-capability. You can build your Python application image based on our agent-enabled Python images and start
-your applications with SkyWalking agent enabled for you. Please refer to our 
-[dockerfile guide](docs/en/setup/Container.md) for further instructions on building and configurations.
-
-### From Source Codes
-
-Refer to the [FAQ](docs/en/setup/faq/How-to-build-from-sources.md).
-
-## Set up Python Agent
-
-SkyWalking Python SDK requires SkyWalking 8.0+ and Python 3.5+.
-
-> If you want to try out the latest features that are not released yet, please refer to [the guide](docs/en/setup/faq/How-to-build-from-sources.md) to build from sources.
-
-By default, SkyWalking Python agent uses gRPC protocol to report data to SkyWalking backend,
-in SkyWalking backend, the port of gRPC protocol is `11800`, and the port of HTTP protocol is `12800`,
-you should configure `collector_address` (or environment variable `SW_AGENT_COLLECTOR_BACKEND_SERVICES`)
-according to the protocol you want.
-
-### Non-intrusive integration (CLI)
-
-SkyWalking Python agent supports running and attaching to your awesome applications without adding any code to your
-project. The package installation comes with a new command-line script named `sw-python`, which you can use to run your Python-based
-applications and programs in the following manner `sw-python run python abc.py` or `sw-python run program arg0 arg1` 
-
-Please do read the [CLI Guide](docs/en/setup/CLI.md) for a detailed introduction to this new feature before using in production.
-
-You can always fall back to our traditional way of integration as introduced below, 
-which is by importing SkyWalking into your project and starting the agent.
-
-### Report data via gRPC protocol (Default)
-
-For example, if you want to use gRPC protocol to report data, configure `collector_address`
-(or environment variable `SW_AGENT_COLLECTOR_BACKEND_SERVICES`) to `<oap-ip-or-host>:11800`,
-such as `127.0.0.1:11800`:
-
-```python
-from skywalking import agent, config
-
-config.init(collector_address='127.0.0.1:11800', service_name='your awesome service')
-agent.start()
-```
-
-### Report data via HTTP protocol
-
-However, if you want to use HTTP protocol to report data, configure `collector_address`
-(or environment variable `SW_AGENT_COLLECTOR_BACKEND_SERVICES`) to `<oap-ip-or-host>:12800`,
-such as `127.0.0.1:12800`:
-
-> Remember you should install `skywalking-python` with extra requires `http`, `pip install "apache-skywalking[http]`.
-
-```python
-from skywalking import agent, config
-
-config.init(collector_address='127.0.0.1:12800', service_name='your awesome service')
-agent.start()
-```
-
-### Report data via Kafka protocol
-
-Finally, if you want to use Kafka protocol to report data, configure `kafka_bootstrap_servers`
-(or environment variable `SW_KAFKA_REPORTER_BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS`) to `kafka-brokers`,
-such as `127.0.0.1:9200`:
-
-> Remember you should install `skywalking-python` with extra requires `kafka`, `pip install "apache-skywalking[kafka]`.
-
-```python
-from skywalking import agent, config
+## Documentation
 
-config.init(kafka_bootstrap_servers='127.0.0.1:9200', service_name='your awesome service')
-agent.start()
-```
+- [Official documentation](https://skywalking.apache.org/docs/#PythonAgent)
+- [Blog](https://skywalking.apache.org/blog/2021-09-12-skywalking-python-profiling/) about the Python Agent Profiling Feature
 
-Alternatively, you can also pass the configurations via environment variables (such as `SW_AGENT_NAME`, `SW_AGENT_COLLECTOR_BACKEND_SERVICES`, etc.) so that you don't need to call `config.init`.
+## Installation Requirements
 
-All supported environment variables can be found in the [Environment Variables List](docs/en/setup/EnvVars.md)
+SkyWalking Python Agent requires SkyWalking 8.0+ and Python 3.5+.
 
-## Report logs with Python Agent
-
-The Python agent is capable of reporting collected logs to the backend(SkyWalking OAP), enabling Log & Trace Correlation.
-
-Please refer to the [Log Reporter Doc](docs/en/setup/advanced/LogReporter.md) for a detailed guide.
-
-## Supported Libraries
-
-There are some built-in plugins (such as `http.server`, `Flask`, `Django` etc.) that support automatic instrumentation of Python libraries, the complete lists can be found [here](docs/en/setup/Plugins.md)
-
-## API
-
-Apart from [the libraries](#supported-libraries) that can be instrumented automatically, we also provide some APIs to enable manual instrumentation.
-
-### Create Spans
-
-The code snippet below shows how to create entry span, exit span and local span.
-
-```python
-from skywalking import Component
-from skywalking.trace.context import SpanContext, get_context
-from skywalking.trace.tags import Tag
-
-context: SpanContext = get_context()  # get a tracing context
-# create an entry span, by using `with` statement,
-# the span automatically starts/stops when entering/exiting the context
-with context.new_entry_span(op='https://github.com/apache') as span:
-    span.component = Component.Flask
-# the span automatically stops when exiting the `with` context
-
-class TagSinger(Tag):
-    key = 'Singer'
-
-with context.new_exit_span(op='https://github.com/apache', peer='localhost:8080', component=Component.Flask) as span:
-    span.tag(TagSinger('Nakajima'))
-
-with context.new_local_span(op='https://github.com/apache') as span:
-    span.tag(TagSinger('Nakajima'))
-```
-
-### Decorators
-
-```python
-from time import sleep
-
-from skywalking import Component
-from skywalking.decorators import trace, runnable
-from skywalking.trace.context import SpanContext, get_context
-
-@trace()  # the operation name is the method name('some_other_method') by default
-def some_other_method():
-    sleep(1)
-
-
-@trace(op='awesome')  # customize the operation name to 'awesome'
-def some_method():
-    some_other_method()
-
-
-@trace(op='async_functions_are_also_supported')
-async def async_func():
-    return 'asynchronous'
-
-
-@trace()
-async def async_func2():
-    return await async_func()
-
-
-@runnable() # cross thread propagation
-def some_method():
-    some_other_method()
-
-from threading import Thread
-t = Thread(target=some_method)
-t.start()
