+# FAQ
 
+## How do I access Apache Spark?
+
+You can access Spark through a `SparkContext` which is created by Apache Toree 
when the kernel starts. You can access
+the context through the `sc` variable.
+
+## How do I add a jar?
+Jars are added through the `AddJar` magic. You simply need to supply an URL 
for the jar to be added.
+
+```
+%AddJar http://myproject.com/myproject/my.jar
+```
+
+For more information about the `AddJar` magic see the [Magic Tutorial 
Notebook][1].
+
+## How do I add a library/dependency?
+
+Dependencies stored in repositories can be added through the `AddDeps` magic. 
An example usage would be:
+
+```
+%AddDeps my.company artifact-id version
+```
+
+If the dependency you are trying to add has transitive dependencies, you can 
add the `--transitive` flag to add those dependencies as well.
+For more information about the `AddDeps` magic see the [Magic Tutorial 
Notebook][1].
+
+## How do I visualize data?
+The most straightforward way to add data visualization with Apache Toree is 
through the [Jupyter Declarative Widgets][2] project.
+
+## How do I create dashboards with interactive widgets?
+Notebooks can be changed into dashboards through the [Jupyter Dashboards][3] 
project. This project allows you to use 
+[Jupyter Declarative Widgets][2] in your dashboards.

+# Installation
+
+## Setup 
+
+An Apache Spark distribution is required to be installed before installing 
Apache Toree. You can download a copy of Apache Spark 
[here](http://spark.apache.org/downloads.html). Throughout the rest of this 
guide we will assume you have downloaded and extracted the Apache Spark 
distribution to `/usr/local/bin/apache-spark/`.
+
+## Installing Toree via Pip
+
+The quickest way to install Apache Toree is through the toree pip package. 
+
+```
+pip install toree
+```
+
+This will install a jupyter application called `toree`, which can be used to 
install and configure different Apache Toree kernels.
+
+```
+jupyter toree install --spark_home=/usr/local/bin/apache-spark/
+```
+
+You can confirm the installation by verifying the `apache_toree_scala` kernel 
is listed in the following command:
+
+```
+jupyter kernelspec list
+```
+
+## Options
+Arguments that take values are actually convenience aliases to full
+Configurables, whose aliases are listed on the help line. For more information
+on full configurables, see '--help-all'.
+
+```
+--user
+    Install to the per-user kernel registry
+--debug
+    set log level to logging.DEBUG (maximize logging output)
+--replace
+    Replace any existing kernel spec with this name.
+--sys-prefix
+    Install to Python's sys.prefix. Useful in conda/virtual environments.
+--interpreters=<Unicode> (ToreeInstall.interpreters)
+    Default: 'Scala'
+    A comma separated list of the interpreters to install. The names of the
+    interpreters are case sensitive.
+--toree_opts=<Unicode> (ToreeInstall.toree_opts)
+    Default: ''
+    Specify command line arguments for Apache Toree.
+--python_exec=<Unicode> (ToreeInstall.python_exec)
+    Default: 'python'
+    Specify the python executable. Defaults to "python"
+--kernel_name=<Unicode> (ToreeInstall.kernel_name)
+    Default: 'Apache Toree'
+    Install the kernel spec with this name. This is also used as the base of 
the
+    display name in jupyter.
+--log-level=<Enum> (Application.log_level)
+    Default: 30
+    Choices: (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 'DEBUG', 'INFO', 'WARN', 'ERROR', 
'CRITICAL')
+    Set the log level by value or name.
+--config=<Unicode> (JupyterApp.config_file)
+    Default: ''
+    Full path of a config file.
+--spark_home=<Unicode> (ToreeInstall.spark_home)
+    Default: '/usr/local/spark'
+    Specify where the spark files can be found.
+--spark_opts=<Unicode> (ToreeInstall.spark_opts)
+    Default: ''
+    Specify command line arguments to proxy for spark config.
+```
+
+# Configuring Spark
+
+There are two options for setting configuration options for Spark. 
+
+The first is at install time with the `--spark_opts` command line option.
+
+```
+jupyter toree instal --spark_opts='--master=local[4]'
+```
+
+The second option is configured at run time through the `SPARK_OPTS` 
environment variable.
+
+```
+SPARK_OPTS='--master=local[4]' jupyter notebook 
+```
+
+__Note:__ There is an order of precedence to the configuration options. 
`SPARK_OPTS` will overwrite any values configured in `--spark_opts`.
+
+
+## Installing Multiple Kernels
+
+Apache Toree provides support for multiple languages. To enable this you need 
to install the configurations for these
+interpreters as a comma seperated list to the `--interpreters` flag:
+
+```
+jupyter toree install --interpreters=Scala,PySpark,SparkR,SQL
+```
+
+The available interpreters and their supported languages are:
+
+| Language | Spark Implementation | Value to provide to Apache Toree |
+|----------|----------------------|----------------------------------|
+| Scala    | Scala with Spark     | Scala                            |
+| Python   | Python with PySpark  | PySpark                          |
+| R        | R with SparkR        | SparkR                           |
+| SQL      | Spark SQL            | SQL                              |
+
+### Interpreter Requirements
+* R version 3.2+ 
+* Make sure that the packages directory used by R when installing packages is 
writable, necessary to installed modified SparkR library. This is done 
automatically before any R code is run. 
+
+If the package directory is not writable by the Apache Toree, then you should 
see an error similar to the following:
+
+```
+Installing package into ‘/usr/local/lib/R/site-library’
+(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
+Warning in install.packages("sparkr_bundle.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type = 
"source") :
+'lib = "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library"' is not writable
+Error in install.packages("sparkr_bundle.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type = 
"source") :
+unable to install packages
+Execution halted
+```

+# Quick Start
 
+## What is Apache Toree
+Apache Toree has one main goal: provide the foundation for interactive 
applications to connect and use [Apache Spark][1].
 
+The project intends to provide applications with the ability to send both 
packaged jars and code snippets. As it 
+implements the latest Jupyter message protocol, Apache Toree can easily plug 
into the Jupyter ecosystem for quick, interactive data exploration.
+
+## Installing as kernel in Jupyter
+
+This requires you to have a distribution of [Apache Spark][1] downloaded to 
the system where Apache Toree will run. The
+following commands will install Apache Toree.
+
+```
+pip install toree
+jupyter toree install --spark_home=/usr/local/bin/apache-spark/
+```
+
+## Your Hello World example
+
+One of the most common ways to use Apache Toree is for interactive data 
exploration in a Jupyter Notebook. You will
+first need to install the notebook and get the notebook server running:
+
+```
+pip install notebook
+jupyter notebook
+```
+
+The following clip shows a simple notebook running Scala code to print `Hello, 
World!`. Each of the code cells can be
+run by pressing `Shift-Enter` on your keyboard.
+
+<img src="/assets/image/toree-quick-start-notebook.gif" alt="Drawing" 
style="width: 100%;"/>
+
+A key component to Apache Toree is that is will automatically create a 
`SparkContext` binding for you. This can be accessed
+through the variable `sc`. The following clip shows code accessing the 
`SparkContext` and returning a value.
+
+<img src="/assets/image/toree-quick-start-spark.gif" alt="Drawing"
