 that you can use to learn a new assembly variant in a short amount of 
 time.
 
+## Getting Started
+To get started with studying assembly languages using Rosetta Stone, follow these steps:
+
+1. **Clone the repository**: Open a terminal and run the following command to clone the repository to your local machine:
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/lowlevellearning/rosetta-stone.git
+```
+2. **Install necessary packages**: Install the necessary packages on your system by running the following command:
+```
+./setup.sh
+```
+3. **Makefile usage**: You can use the Makefile to compile the rosetta.c file into executables for different architectures. Run the following command to compile the code for all supported architectures (powerpc, arm, aarch64):
+```
+make all
+```
+Alternatively, you can compile the code for individual architectures using the respective target names:
+* **PowerPC:**
+```
+make powerpc
+```
+* **ARM**
+```
+make arm
+```
+* **AArch64**
+```
+make aarch64
+```
+The compiled executables will be named ppc (for powerpc), arm (for arm), and aarch64 (for aarch64).
