-# Run Qemu in Kubernetes Pods
+# Run QEMU/KVM in Kubernetes Pods
 
-The goal of this project is to provide simply to use and flexible components
-for running Qemu based VMs in Kubernetes pods.
+![Overview picture](webpages/index-pic.svg)
+
+This project provides an easy to use and flexible solution for running
+QEMU/KVM based VMs in Kubernetes pods.
+
+The central component of this solution is the kubernetes operator that
+manages "runners". These run in pods and are used to start and manage
+the QEMU/KVM process for the VMs (optionally together with a SW-TPM).
+
+A web GUI for administrators provides an overview of the VMs together
+with some basic control over the VMs. A web GUI for users provides an
+interface to access and optionally start, stop and reset the VMs.
+
+Advanced features of the operator include pooling of VMs and automatic
+login.
 
 See the [project's home page](https://vm-operator.jdrupes.org/)
 for details.
