+# Democracy Club design system
+
+Documentation: https://democracyclub.github.io/design-system/
+
+## Use in 3rd party applications
+
+### Python
+
+The design system can be installed using python package managers like `pip` or `pipenv`:
+
+`pip install git+https://github.com/DemocracyClub/design-system.git@VERSION`
+
+It's strongly recommended to pin to a version tag when using in real world applications.
+
+Once installed, all the assets in the `system` directory will be in your `site-packages` folder. To use access them you can import the design system in to your application and use `DC_SYSTEM_PATH`:
+
+```
+import dc_design_system
+dc_design_system.DC_SYSTEM_PATH
+```
+
+You can use this path when compiling the sass by passing it to the include paths.
+
+At this point you can follow the main usage instructions (TODO) to implement.
