-4 years after launching [the-bread-code repo](https://github.com/hendricius/the-bread-code)
-and the [pizza-dough repo](https://github.com/hendricius/pizza-dough)
-I present to you The Sourdough Framework book.  When not
-working as a software engineer I teach people how to bake bread on
-[my YouTube channel.](https://youtube.com/c/thebreadcode) Several
-people have asked me to offer a written down version of my teachings.
-I believe that knowledge like this is essential to everyone.
-That's why I decided to open source my knowledge hoping
-that it will reach more people all over the world without
-budget constrains.
+4 years after launching the repositories [the-bread-code](https://github.com/hendricius/the-bread-code)
+and [pizza-dough](https://github.com/hendricius/pizza-dough) I
+created this project to merge the knowledge together. This
+project intends to go one step deeper into the workings of
+natural fermentation. At the same time as many scientific references
+as possible are provided.
