 This is a user-registration application for `Django
-<https://www.djangoproject.com/>`_. There are two registration
-workflows (one-step, and two-step with activation) built in, and it's
-designed to be extensible and support building additional workflows.

-To get started, check out `the documentation
+It has built-in support for:
+
+* User registration with the default Django user model
+
+* User registration with many custom user models
+
+* Two-step (email an activation link) registration
+
+* One-step (register and be immediately logged in) registration
+
+And is designed to be extensible to support use cases beyond what's
+built in.
+
+For example, to enable one-step registration, you'd add
+``"django_registration"`` to your Django ``INSTALLED_APPS`` setting,
+then add the following to your site's root URLconfig:
+
+.. code-block:: python
