+Contents of the SDK
+===================
+
+Supported Targets
+-----------------
+
+Freedom E SDK comes packaged with the following board support packages under the
+``bsp/`` directory.
+
+- `SiFive HiFive 1 <https://www.sifive.com/boards/hifive1>`_
+
+  - sifive-hifive1
+
+- `SiFive Freedom E310 Arty <https://github.com/sifive/freedom>`_
+
+  - freedom-e310-arty
+
+- SiFive CoreIP
+
+  - coreip-e31
+  - coreip-s51
+
+- SiFive CoreIP Arty FPGA Evaluation targets
+
+  - coreip-e31-arty
+  - coreip-s51-arty
+
+The board support files for the Freedom Metal library are located entirely
+within a single target directory in ``bsp/<target>/``. For example, the HiFive 1
+board support files for Freedom Metal are entirely within ``bsp/sifive-hifive1/``
+and consist of the following:
+
+* ``design.dts``
+
+  - The DeviceTree description of the target. This file is used to parameterize
+    the Freedom Metal library to the target device. It is included as reference
+    so that users of Freedom Metal are aware of what features and peripherals
+    are available on the target.
+
+* ``mee.h``
+
+  - The Freedom Metal machine header which is used internally to Freedom Metal
+    to instantiate structures to support the target device.
+
+* ``mee.lds``
+
+  - The linker script for the target device.
+
+* ``openocd.cfg`` (for development board and FPGA targets)
+
+  - Used to configure OpenOCD for flashing and debugging the target device.
+
+* ``settings.mk``
+
+  - Used to set ``-march`` and ``-mabi`` arguments to the RISC-V GNU Toolchain.
+
+Freedom Metal
+-------------
+
+`Freedom Metal <https://github.com/sifive/freedom-metal>`_
+(`Documentation <https://sifive.github.io/freedom-metal-docs/index.html>`_)
+is a library developed by SiFive for writing portable software for all of SiFive's
+RISC-V IP, RISC-V FPGA evaluation images, and development boards. Programs written
+against the Freedom Metal API are intended to build and run for all SiFive RISC-V
+targets. This makes Freedom Metal suitable for writing portable tests, bare metal
+application programming, and as a hardware abstraction layer for porting
+operating systems to RISC-V.
+
+Freedom E SDK is a consumer of the Freedom Metal library. Freedom Metal allows the
+SDK examples to be portable to all supported SiFive targets.
+
+Example Programs
+----------------
+
+The example programs can be found under the ``software/`` directory.
+
+- hello
+
+  - Prints "Hello, World!" to stdout, if a serial device is present on the target.
+
+- return-pass
+
+  - Returns status code 0 indicating program success.
+
+- return-fail
+
+  - Returns status code 1 indicating program failure.
+
+- example-itim
+
+  - Demonstrates how to statically link application code into the Instruction
+    Tightly Integrated Memory (ITIM) if an ITIM is present on the target.
+
+- software-interrupt
+
+  - Demonstrates how to register a handler for and trigger a software interrupt
+
+- timer-interrupt
+
+  - Demonstrates how to register a handler for and trigger a timer interrupt
+
+- local-interrupt
+
+  - Demonstrates how to register a handler for and trigger a local interrupt
+
+- example-pmp
+
+  - Demonstrates how to configure a Physical Memory Protection (PMP) region
+
