+We are excited to introduce the new [Arrow for R Cheatsheet](https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/r/cheatsheet/arrow-cheatsheet.pdf).

+## Helping (Not Cheating)
+
+While [cheatsheets](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheat_sheet) may have started as a set of notes used without an instructor’s knowledge&mdash;so, ummm, cheating&mdash;using the Arrow for R cheatsheet is definitely not cheating! Today, cheatsheets are a common tool to provide users an introduction to software’s functionality and a quick reference guide to help users get started.
+
+The Arrow for R cheatsheet is intended to be an easy-to-scan introduction to the Arrow R package and Arrow data structures, with getting started sections on some of the package’s main functionality. The cheatsheet includes introductory snippets on using Arrow to read and work with larger-than-memory multi-file data sets, sending and receiving data with Flight, reading data from cloud storage without downloading the data first, and more. The Arrow for R cheatsheet also directs users to the full [Arrow for R package documentation and articles](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/r/index.html) and the [Arrow Cookbook](https://arrow.apache.org/cookbook/), both full of code recipes to support users build their Arrow-based data workflows. Finally, the cheatsheet debuts one of the first uses of the hot-off-the-presses Arrow hex sticker, recently made available as part of the [Apache Arrow visual identity guidance](https://arrow.apache.org/visual_identity/).

   Perhaps consider changing "both full of code recipes" to "both full of code examples and recipes" as the pedant in me says that it's only the cookbook which contains recipes.
