+
+## Firmware
+
+Node board firmware is co-located in this repository to keep API implementation files consistent in the same git tree.
+
+Firmware is currently developed using [platform.io](https://platform.io), but this is subject to change.
+
+## Software
+
+Software run on the BeageBone Black can be found in this repo as well.
+
+## Testing
+
+Testing is performed by a Jenkins build server automatically.  Should your PR fail to build please have a look at the console output
+in the jenkins job for context clues. The Jenkins server executes the tasks listed in the `Jenkinsfile` and will test the Firmware and
+Embedded Software in various ways.  You can reproduce those tests by following the steps in the `Jenkinsfile`.
