+
+MAMMOTH is a wavelet-based multiresolution mesh generator.  It leverages
+J.R. Shewchuk's {[Triangle](https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~quake/triangle.html)}
+for the Delaunay triangulation.
+
+## Dependencies
+
++ [Triangle](https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~quake/triangle.html) - A two-dimensional quality mesh generator and Delaunay triangulator
+
+## Installation
+
+Use GNU make to build the code.
+
+## Usage
+
+After building, the executable is located in the root directory.
+
+```
+./mammoth <input-file>
