+
+`skaffold init` is an easy way to get your project up and running in seconds.
+
+Skaffold auto-generates `build` and `deploy` config for supported builders and deployers.
+
+
+## Build Config Initialization
+`skaffold init` currently supports build detection for two builders.
+
+1. [Docker]({{<relref "/docs/pipeline-stages/builders#dockerfile-locally-with-docker">}})
+2. [Jib]({{<relref "/docs/pipeline-stages/builders#jib-maven-and-gradle-locally">}})
+
+`skaffold init` will walk your project directory and look for any `Dockerfiles` 
+or `build.gradle/pom.xml`.
+
+If you have multiple `Dockerfile` or `build.gradle/pom.xml` files, Skaffold will provide an option
+to pair an image with one of the file.
+
+E.g. For a multi-services [microservices example](https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/skaffold/tree/master/examples/microservices)
+
+```bash
+skaffold init
+```
+![microservices](/images/microservices-init-flow.png)
+
+
+{{< alert title="Note" >}}
+You can choose <code>None (image not built from these sources)</code> in case none of the suggested 
+options are correct. <br>
+You will have to manually set up build config for this artifact
+{{</alert>}}
+
+`skaffold` init also recognizes a maven or gradle project and will auto-suggest [`jib`]({{<relref "/docs/pipeline-stages/builders#jib-maven-and-gradle-locally">}}) builder.
+Currently `jib` artifact detection is disabled by default, you can turn it on using the flag `--XXenableJibInit`.
+
+You can try it this out on example [jib project](https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/skaffold/tree/master/examples/jib-multimodule)
+
+```bash
+skaffold init --XXenableJibInit
+```
+
+![jib-multimodule](/images/jib-multimodule-init-flow.png)
+
+
+In case you want to configure build artifacts on your own, use `--skip-build` flag.
+
+## Deploy Config Initialization
+`skaffold init` currently supports only [`Kubeclt` deployer]({{<relref "/docs/pipeline-stages/deployers#deploying-with-kubectl" >}})
+Skaffold will walk through all the `yaml` files in your project and find valid kubernetes manifest files.
+
+These files will be added to `deploy` config in `skaffold.yaml`.
+
+```yaml
+deploy:
+  kubectl:
+    manifests:
+    - leeroy-app/kubernetes/deployment.yaml
+    - leeroy-web/kubernetes/deployment.yaml
+```
+
+
+## Init API
+`skaffold init` also exposes an api which tools like IDEs can integrate with via flags.
+
+This API can be used to 
+
+1. Analyze a project workspace and discover all build definitions (e.g. `Dockerfile`s) and artifacts (image names from the Kubernetes manifests) - this then provides an ability for tools to ask the user to pair the artifacts with Dockerfiles interactively. 
+2. Given a pairing between the image names (artifacts) and build definitions (e.g. Dockerfiles), generate Skaffold `build` config for a given artifact.
+
+**Init API contract**
+
+| API | flag | input/output |
+| ---- | --- | --- |
+| Analyze | `--analyze` | json encoded output of builders and images|  
+| Generate | `--artifact`| "`=` delimited" build definition/image pair (for example: `=path1/Dockerfile=artifact1`) or <br>JSON string (for example: `{"builder":"Docker","payload":{"path":"Dockerfile"},"image":"artifact")`|
+
+
+### Analyze API
+Analyze API walks through all files in your project workspace and looks for 
+`Dockerfile` files.
+
+To get all image names and dockerfiles, run
+```bash
+skaffold init --analyze | jq
+```
+will give you a json output
+```json
+{
+  "dockerfiles": [
+    "leeroy-app/Dockerfile",
+    "leeroy-web/Dockerfile"
+  ],
+  "images": [
+    "gcr.io/k8s-skaffold/leeroy-app",
+    "gcr.io/k8s-skaffold/leeroy-web"
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Generate API
+To generate a skaffold `build` config, use the `--artifact` flag per artifact.
+
+For multiple artifacts, use `--artifact` multiple times.
+
+```bash
+microservices$skaffold init \
+  -a '{"builder":"Docker","payload":{"path":"leeroy-app/Dockerfile"},"image":"gcr.io/k8s-skaffold/leeroy-app"}' \
+  -a '{"builder":"Docker","payload":{"path":"leeroy-web/Dockerfile"},"image":"gcr.io/k8s-skaffold/leeroy-web"}'
+```
+
+will produce an `skaffold.yaml` config like this
+```bash
+apiVersion: skaffold/v1beta15
+kind: Config
+metadata:
+  name: microservices
+build:
+  artifacts:
+  - image: gcr.io/k8s-skaffold/leeroy-app
+    context: leeroy-app
+  - image: gcr.io/k8s-skaffold/leeroy-web
+    context: leeroy-web
+deploy:
+  kubectl:
+    manifests:
+    - leeroy-app/kubernetes/deployment.yaml

+Skaffold requires a `skaffold.yaml`, but - for supported projects - Skaffold can generate a simple config for you that you can get started with. To configure Skaffold for your application you can run [`skaffold init`]({{<relref "docs/references/cli#skaffold-init" >}}).
+
+Running `skaffold init` at the root of your project directory will walk you through a wizard
+and create a `skaffold.yaml` with [build](#build-config-initialization) and [deploy](#deploy-config-initialization) config.
+
+```bash
