+# What is Jetpack?
+
+## Jetpack Ethos
+
+To create recommended components, tools, and guidance that makes it quick and
+easy to build great Android apps, including pieces both from Google and from
+trusted OSS sources.
+
+## Team Mission
+
+To improve the Android developer experience by providing architectural guidance,
+addressing common pain points, and simplifying the app development process
+through broad compatibility across Android versions and elimination of
+boilerplate code so developers can focus on what makes their app special.
+
+## What is `androidx`?
+
+Artifacts within the `androidx` package comprise the libraries of
+[Android Jetpack](https://developer.android.com/jetpack).
+
+Libraries in the `androidx` package provide functionality that extends the
+capabilities of the Android platform. These libraries, which ship separately
+from the Android OS, focus on improving the experience of developing apps
+through broad OS- and device-level compatibility, high-level abstractions to
+simplify and unify platform features, and other new features that target
+developer pain points.
+
+## What happened to the Support Library?
+
+As part of the Jetpack project to improve developer experience on Android, the
+Support Library team undertook a massive refactoring project. Over the course of
+2017 and 2018, we streamlined and enforced consistency in our packaging,
+developed new policies around versioning and release, and developed tools to
+make it easy for developers to migrate.
+
+Revision 28.0.0 of the Support Library, which launched as stable in September
+2018, was the last feature release in the `android.support` package. There will
+be no further releases under Support Library packaging.
