+## Background
+
+Drutopia is a "flexible and extensible Drupal distribution".
+
+This repository helps build and run a Docker image for Drutopia, [based on the
+"official" Drupal images on Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/_/drupal/).
+
+Although this image is mainly intended for use in [the Drutopia Co-op Cloud
+recipe](https://git.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud/drutopia), it should work fine in
+other situations too.
