+        <p>This project provides a powerful, modern and easy to use Python SDK for Web GIS. The SDK consists of a <i>Pythonic</i> GIS API, python packages delivered via conda, a browser based Python console leveraging the Jupyter Notebook, interactive documentation and samples,  that run both within the Jupyter Notebook environment as well as in a batch processing environment using scripts.</p>
+        
+        <p>This API empowers power uses, ArcGIS org Administrators and developers to leverage the Python ecosystem to automate their workflows and perform repetitive tasks using scripts. By integrating well with the Jupyter Notebook and the SciPy stack, it enables academics, data scientists and GIS analysts to share geo-enriched literate programs and reproducible research with others.</p>
