+Waf is system to build software, documentation or handle any task that requires a set of commands to produce a result.
+
+We have a fantastic ```Book``` available called [https://waf.io/book/ The Waf Book] that covers all the how-to and internals of the project.
+
+Start from [https://waf.io/book/#_download_and_installation Section 2 Download and installation] and continue on in the book to get a good idea of how Waf works.  Don't worry about picking it up all the first time there are no tests at the end! :)
+
+It is important that you are able to understand the high-level structure of Waf.  Going through the exercises will help in understanding the logic and methodology behind a good `wscript`.
+
+Please feel free to contact us via [wiki:/wiki/waf-project/IRC IRC] if you have any questions.
