 ## Overview
 Welcome to metavirs! Before getting started, we highly recommend reading through [metavirs' documentation](https://openomics.github.io/metavirs/).
 
-The **`./metavirs`** pipeline is composed several inter-related sub commands to setup and run the pipeline across different systems. Each of the available sub commands perform different functions: 
+The **`./metavirs`** pipeline is composed of several inter-related subcommands to set up and run the pipeline across different systems. Each of the available sub-commands performs different functions: 
 
  * [<code>metavirs <b>run</b></code>](https://openomics.github.io/metavirs/usage/run/): Run the metavirs pipeline with your input files.
  * [<code>metavirs <b>unlock</b></code>](https://openomics.github.io/metavirs/usage/unlock/): Unlocks a previous runs output directory.
  * [<code>metavirs <b>install</b></code>](https://openomics.github.io/metavirs/usage/install/): Download reference files locally.
  * [<code>metavirs <b>cache</b></code>](https://openomics.github.io/metavirs/usage/cache/): Cache software containers locally.
 
 
-metavirs is a comprehensive viral metagenomics pipeline to assemble, annotate, and classify microorganisms in enviromental samples. It relies on technologies like [Singularity<sup>1</sup>](https://singularity.lbl.gov/) to maintain the highest-level of reproducibility. The pipeline consists of a series of data processing and quality-control steps orchestrated by [Snakemake<sup>2</sup>](https://snakemake.readthedocs.io/en/stable/), a flexible and scalable workflow management system, to submit jobs to a cluster.

-The pipeline is compatible with data generated from Illumina short-read sequencing technologies. As input, it accepts a set of FastQ files and can be run locally on a compute instance or on-premise using a cluster. A user can define the method or mode of execution. The pipeline can submit jobs to a cluster using a job scheduler like SLURM (more coming soon!). A hybrid approach ensures the pipeline is accessible to all users.
