+# TuringSim
+A template-intensive high-performance framework to simulate Turing machines and other abstract computation models.
+
+You may be interested in the [documentation](https://turingsim.marc-chevalier.com/).
+
+## Using
+
+Static and dynamic libraries are provided for the few non-template functions and classes.
+
+Yet, most classes are heavily templated, and thus, TuringSim headers are built as part of your project.
+
+## Tests
+
+Tests requires CppUnit and can be executed by:
+
+```bash
+mkdir build
+cd build
+cmake ..
+make -j4
+./testTuringSim
+```
