+**Note:** The jQuery team has offered two options for CSS file inclusion. If you're planning on using a custom theme then you only need to include `jquery.mobile.structure-1.1.0.min.css`.
+
+## Quick start
+
+Clone the git repo - `git clone git@github.com:commadelimited/jQuery-Mobile-Boilerplate.git` - or [download it](https://github.com/commadelimited/jQuery-Mobile-Boilerplate/zipball/master)
+
+**Note:** By default, the links to the CSS and JS files are root relative. This means that Boilerplate expects to be placed in the root of your website. If this is not the configuration you're using then you'll need to update these links manually.
