Deis (pronounced DAY-iss) is an open source PaaS that makes it easy to deploy and manage applications
on your own servers. Deis builds upon Docker and CoreOS to provide a lightweight PaaS with a
Heroku-inspired workflow.

To get started with Deis, first read :ref:`Understanding Deis <understanding_deis>` then use
:ref:`installing_deis` to start provisioning your cluster.

The full documentation tree can be seen :ref:`here <toctree>`.
