 # Apache Felix Subproject Documentation
 
-This is a list of the active subprojects.
+## Building Apache Felix
+
+The Felix project is organized into subprojects, where each subproject targets a specific OSGi specification or OSGi-related technology. Most of these projects are in a single git repository, some have moved into separate git repositories.
+
+Use the below table of subprojects to find the git repository for that subproject, if you want to checkout the [main git repository](https://github.com/apache/felix-dev.git) with most subprojects use `git clone https://github.com/apache/felix-dev.git`, otherwise use the git repository mentioned in the table.
+
+To get started:
+
+- Most Apache Felix projects use Apache Maven as the build tool. Therefore, download and install the latest Apache Maven 3 release.
+- Check out or update the git repository (see above).
+- Go to the sub project you're interested in and type: "mvn clean install" to build it. If this project is not using Maven, refer to the docs for the subproject on how to build it.
