-## Hello
+## File sharing with Dat
 
-World
+Dat is a peer-to-peer file sharing technology. It means we can share our files
+between our computers without using services like WeTransfer and Google Drive.
+It is still an experimental technology but it's getting there.
+
+We're still waiting on the newer more reliable version of [Dat desktop](https://github.com/datproject/dat-desktop/pull/649)
+to be released. Until that day comes, we have to use the command-line interface. Luckily,
+it's very easy to install.
+
+To get started, just download and unzip this file for your operating system:
+[GNU/Linux](https://github.com/datproject/dat/releases/download/v14.0.2/dat-14.0.2-linux-x64.zip),
+[MacOS](https://github.com/datproject/dat/releases/download/v14.0.2/dat-14.0.2-macos-x64.zip)
+or [Windows](https://github.com/datproject/dat/releases/download/v14.0.2/dat-14.0.2-win-x64.zip).
+Then you can run the `dat` binary in the unzipped folder. On GNU/Linux, that
+might look like the following commands.
+
+```bash
+$ curl -sOL https://github.com/datproject/dat/releases/download/v14.0.2/dat-14.0.2-linux-x64.zip
+$ unzip dat-14.0.2-linux-x64.zip
+$ cd dat-14.0.2-linux-x64
+$ ./dat --version   # just testing...
+```
+
+Then, creating a new Dat is as easy as the following.
+
+```bash
+$ dat create myfolder
+```
+
+Where `myfolder` is the folder you want to share with friends.
+
+See the [Dat usage documentation](https://github.com/datproject/dat#usage) for more.
