-** WIP **
+**Kapow!** allows you to leverage the Ultimate Power™ of the UNIX® shell via HTTP.
+
+**Kapow!** is in the process of being defined by a [specification](/spec/)
+
+# Sample usage
+## Clone the project
+```bash
+# clone this project
+```
+
+## Build the kapow! docker image
+```bash
+docker build -t bbva/kapow:0.1 /path/to/kapow/poc
+```
+
+## Build a docker image for running the nmap example
+```bash
+docker build -t kapow-nmap /path/to/kapow/poc/examples/nmap
+```
+
+## Run kapow
+```bash
+docker run \
+        -it \
+        -p 8080:8080 \
+        kapow-nmap
+```
+which will output something like this:
+```
+======== Running on http://0.0.0.0:8080 ========
+(Press CTRL+C to quit)
+Route created POST /list/{ip}
+ROUTE_8ed01c48_bf23_455a_8186_a1df7ab09e48
+bash-4.4#
+```
+
+
+## Test /list endpoint
+In another terminal, try running:
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/list/github.com
+```
+which will respond something like:
+```
+Starting Nmap 7.70 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2019-05-10 14:01 UTC
+Nmap scan report for github.com (140.82.118.3)
+rDNS record for 140.82.118.3: lb-140-82-118-3-ams.github.com
+Nmap done: 1 IP address (0 hosts up) scanned in 0.04 seconds
+
+```
+et voilà !
