-In this section, we provide a high level overview on how to get started with Eclipse Theia and link to respective sections to read.
-Eclipse Theia is a platform for building custom Cloud & Desktop IDEs and tools with modern web technologies. The Eclipse Theia Platform is not a tool itself, but there are many tools which are built upon Theia. The Theia project provides a tool called [Eclipse Theia IDE](/#theiaide) that can be directly used. The Theia IDE can also be [used as a template](/docs/blueprint_documentation/) to get started with building your own tool. Please have a look at the project goals for more details!

-## Use Eclipse Theia (IDE)

-You cannot directly launch/use Theia as it is a platform. The project provides one tool called [Eclipse IDE](/#theiaide) that you can directly download and use. Further, it is very easy to [create your own product based on Theia](/docs/composing_applications/).
