-sshca is a tool for managing an [SSH CA][].
+The `sshca` tool helps manage an SSH Certificate Authority ([SSH CA][]) and
+create host and user certificates. Such certificates make using and
+administering SSH less tedious and more secure.
 
-This website will be filled out later.
+An SSH CA is an SSH key dedicated to signing, or certifying, other SSH
+keys. Such a signed key is called a certificate and is used together
+with the private part of the certified key. The certificate is used
+instead of the public key.
+
+SSH clients and servers can be configured to trust certificates made
+by one or more CA keys. This makes it possible for a client to trust a
+server without asking the user to accept the host key for each new
+server. A server can trust a client without having the client's public
+key configured for that user in the `authorized_key` file. This
+simplifies overall key management significantly, but requires creating
+and managing CA keys and certificates.

+
+I have in recent time learned about [SSH CA][] as a way to make use of
+SSH more convenient, while making it more secure. However, while
+managing an SSH CA instance with just the `ssh-keygen` tool is
+possible, I want more convenient tooling. This project is about
+developing such tooling.
+
+The `sshca` tool will be free and open source software, but I hope to
+offer some paid-for training and support to those who can pay.
