+Welcome to the angular tutorial! Before you begin, you can check out the finished app here:
+{@link http://angular.github.com/angular-phonecat/step-11/app/ The Completed Tutorial App}. Also,
+if you missed the {@link tutorial_intro Intro to Tutorial} doc, it provides some background info,
+and describes different options you have in working through the tutorial.
+
+We'll begin the tutorial by creating a basic page, and then we'll add functionality to our app on
+each subsequent step.
+
+# Step 0
+The following sample code is our starting point. It is a static HTML page that displays next to
+nothing, but it has everything we need to proceed. You can think of this bit of code as our
+prototype template, consisting of basic HTML tags and some key angular {@link angular.directive
+directives}.
+
+__`app/index.html`:__
+
+
+## Discussion:
+
+Although our app doesn't appear to do anything dynamic, note the following:
+
+* __... `xmlns:ng="http://angularjs.org"` ...__ This `xmlns` declaration for the `ng` namespace
+must be specified if you use XHTML, or if you are targeting IE older than 9 (regardless of whether
+you are using XHTML or HTML).
+
+* __`
+
+ This will bootstrap angular from the angular server instead of from a local file.
+
+* To try this code out in your browser, you need to navigate to the step-0 page (you are currently
+on Step 0 of the tutorial). If your http server is running, navigate to `app/index.html`.
+Remember, this is a relative URL (see the Relative URL section in {@link tutorial_intro Intro to
+Tutorial}). The browser will display the same thing as you would see if you go to
+http://angular.github.com/angular-phonecat/step-0/app (accessible from Example at the bottom of
+the page).
+
+Now we can move on and add some content to our developing web app.
