+# preseq documentation
+
+This is the (new) documentation for preseq that uses
+[mkdocs](https://mkdocs.readthedocs.io) to generate readthedocs pages.
+The public web verison of this documentation is available at
+[preseq.readthedocs.io](https://preseq.readthedocs.io), but for users
+who wish to see the documentation on a web browser offline, you can
+build the documentation locally as described below.
+
+### Dependencies
+
+To build the documentation locally, install mkdocs
+```console
+pip install -U mkdocs
+```
+
+### Local compilation
+
+Build the HTML documentation by running
+```console
+mkdocs build
+```
+which will create a `site` directory where markdown files are
+converted to HTML
+
+Create a local host for the HTML documentation by running
+```console
+mkdocs serve
+```
+This will create the documentation, usually at http://localhost:8000 .
