+# Simple Thread Pool for C++11
+
+This is a very simple implementation of a ThreadPool based on std::thread. It's written to be simple, not versatile. It works very efficiently for coarse-grained tasks (hence, no multi-pool task-stealing from other threads, etc...).
+
+### License
+
+MIT. In other words, you're free to do with this code whatever you want. Enjoy!
+
+Terms (in short words):
+-You're free to do anything you wish with this simple library, including any embedding or modifications you wish, with static or dynamic linking (you can't dynamically link it... it's header only! :-) ).
+-The creator of this library is not to be help liable for anything you do with it. Using this library is your own responsibility
+
+### Usage
+
+There is an example on how to use the code in the directory `examples`. 
+
+Other than that, all you have to do is:
+
+ * Include the file `ThreadPool.h` (the library is header-only, no need for sources)
+ * Start coding!
+
+Using the code is very simple. All you have to do is:
+
+ * Create an object `ThreadPool pool`
+ * Use the member function `pool.push(function)`, to add tasks to the pool, where `function` is a function object (functor) of the task of type void().
+ * Call `pool.finish()`, which will block until all tasks are finished.
+
+Note: Return values in the `function` are omitted.
+Note: The task function's signature is void function(). If you need to parametrize the function, use std::bind or lambdas.
+
+### Makefiles
+
+There's a make file that builds the example. There's also a qmake file that builds the example too. 
+
+### Credits
