+# For developers who want to model or program systems with Umple
+
+Umple can be used as a modeling tool to build UML models, a programming tool to program in a more abstract way, a code generation tool for creating high quality code from UML models, or all three at the same time.
+
+The following links will help you get started.
+
+  * **To get going quickly**: First familiarize youself with Umple using [UmpleOnline](http://cruise.site.uottawa.ca/umpleonline/). Load the examples and see UML models rendered diagrammatically and textually. Then generate code in Java, PHP, and Ruby, or else generate various other data formats such as Ecore models
+
+  * Read the Umple [Philosophy and Vision](PhilosophyAndVision)
+
+  * Browse the Umple [User manual](http://www.umple.org/GettingStarted.html)
+
+  * Look at a wide variety of Umple [Examples](Examples)
+
+  * Understand the [best practices](BestUmpleUsePractices) for modeling or programming in Umple
+
+  * View the Umple [home page](http://cruise.site.uottawa.ca/umple/)
+
+  * To Download Umple: [visit the downloads page](http://dl.umple.org)
+
+  * Try writing and compiling some Umple code on the command line.
+
+  * To get started developing a significant project in Eclipse: [Install the Eclipse plugin](InstallEclipsePlugin)
+
+  * Read our [tutorials](Tutorials)
+
+
+# For Educators and Researchers
+
+  * Look at [UmpleOnline](http://cruise.site.uottawa.ca/umpleonline/) and the [Umple home page](http://cruise.site.uottawa.ca/umple/)
+
+  * [Read our publications and theses about Umple](Publications)
+
+# For Umple developers or open-source contributors
+
+  * Read everything above aimed at modelers and programmers of Umple, and use Umple to model and program a few examples.
+
+  * Read about the [best practices](ContributionProcessToUmple) for contributing to Umple
+
+  * Setup your environment: [New Developer Setup](DevelopmentSetUp)
+
+  * Bookmark the [Cheat Sheet](CheatSheet)
+
+  * Check the [Umple Subdomains](WebSubdomainsUmpleOrg)
+
+  * See the complete set of wiki pages aimed at contributors by looking at the sidebar on the right.
+
+
+  * See the [Issues List](https://github.com/umple-ucosp/umple/issues) or [the subset](https://github.com/umple-ucosp/umple/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3AcontribSought) for which we require contributors
+
+  * Learn how to perform test driven development, by editing the tests, building to get a failed test, then editing the code, and building to see the tests now pass.
+
+  * Once you have made changes, [learn how to deploy](Deploying). You initially won't have authority to do all the steps, but you should understand the process.
+
+  * See our [Development Tutorials](Tutorials#Help_for_those_developing_and_improving_Umple)

+# UCOSP CheatSheet
+
+  * [UCOSP Notes](UCospNotes)
