+SocExplorer
+-----------
+
+SocExplorer is an open source generic System On Chip testing software/framework. 
+We write this software for the development and the validation of our instrument, 
+the Low Frequency Receiver(LFR) for the Solar Orbiter mission. This instrument is 
+based on an actel FPGA hosting a LEON3FT processor and some peripherals. To 
+make it more collaborative, we use a plugin based system, the main executable is 
+SocExplorer then all the functionality are provided by plugins. Like this 
+everybody can provide his set of plugins to handle a new SOC or just a new 
+peripheral. SocExplorer uses PythonQt to allow user to automate some tasks such 
+as loading some plugins, configuring them and talking with his device.

+
+How to build
+------------
+
+To build it on linux you can look here https://hephaistos.lpp.polytechnique.fr/redmine/projects/socexplorer/wiki/Linux_setup
+
+If you can't access to it, first you will need a working qt5 kit with all the development packages.
+ Step 1:
+  You need to get a modified version of PythonQt, you can clone it from our repository
+```Bash
+  hg clone https://hephaistos.lpp.polytechnique.fr/rhodecode/HG_REPOSITORIES/LPP/INSTRUMENTATION/USERS/JEANDET/PythonQt PythonQt
+  cd PythonQt
+  qmake-qt5 
+  make 
+  sudo make install
+```
+ Step 2:
+  Get and install SocExplorer
+```Bash
+  hg clone https://hephaistos.lpp.polytechnique.fr/rhodecode/HG_REPOSITORIES/LPP/INSTRUMENTATION/SocExplorer SocExplorer
+  cd SocExplorer
+  qmake-qt5
+  make 
+  sudo make install
+  mkdir -p ~/.SocExplorer/config
+  cp ressources/Grlib.xml ~/.SocExplorer/config/Grlib.xml
+```
+ Step 3:
+  Get and install SocExplorer main plugins
+```Bash
+  hg clone https://hephaistos.lpp.polytechnique.fr/rhodecode/HG_REPOSITORIES/LPP/INSTRUMENTATION/SocExplorerPlugins SocExplorerPlugins
+  qmake-qt5
+  make 
+  make install # /!\ As regular user!
+```
