+# Protocol Buffers - Google's data interchange format
 
 Copyright 2008 Google Inc.
 
-This directory contains the Java Protocol Buffers runtime library.
+https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/
+
+## Use Java Protocol Buffers
+
+To use protobuf in Java, first obtain the protocol compiler (a.k.a., protoc,
+see instructions in the toplevel [README.md](../README.md)) and use it to
+generate Java code for your .proto files:
+
+    $ protoc --java_out=${OUTPUT_DIR} path/to/your/proto/file
+
+Include the generated Java files in your project and add a dependency on the
+protobuf Java runtime. If you are using Maven, use the following:
+
+```xml
+<dependency>
+  <groupId>com.google.protobuf</groupId>
+  <artifactId>protobuf-java</artifactId>
+  <version>3.5.1</version>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+Make sure the version number of the runtime matches (or is newer than) the
+version number of the protoc.
+
+If you want to use features like protobuf JsonFormat, add a dependency on the
+protobuf-java-util package:
+
+```xml
+<dependency>
+  <groupId>com.google.protobuf</groupId>
+  <artifactId>protobuf-java-util</artifactId>
+  <version>3.5.1</version>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+### Use Java Protocol Buffers on Android
+
+For Android users, it's recommended to use protobuf Java Lite runtime because
+of its smaller code size. Java Lite runtime also works better with Proguard
+because it doesn't rely on Java reflection and is optimized to allow as much
+code stripping as possible. You can following these [instructions to use Java
+Lite runtime](lite.md).
+
+### Use Java Protocol Buffers with Bazel
+
+Bazel has native build rules to work with protobuf. For Java, you can use the
+`java_proto_library` rule for server and the `java_lite_proto_library` rule
+for Android. Check out [our build files examples](../examples/BUILD) to learn
+how to use them.

+
+## Use Protobuf Java Lite Runtime
+
+Protobuf Java Lite runtime is separated from the main Java runtime because
+it's designed/implemented with different constraints. In particular, Java
+Lite runtime has a much smaller code size which makes it more suitable to
+be used on Android.
+
+To use Java Lite runtime, you need to install protoc and the protoc plugin for
+Java Lite runtime. You can obtain protoc following the instructions in the
+toplevel [README.md](../README.md) file. For the protoc plugin, you can
+download it from maven:
+
+    https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/google/protobuf/protoc-gen-javalite/
+
+Choose the version that works on your platform (e.g., on windows you can
+download `protoc-gen-javalite-3.0.0-windows-x86_32.exe`), rename it to
+protoc-gen-javalite (or protoc-gen-javalite.exe on windows) and place it
+in a directory where it can be find in PATH.
+
+Once you have the protoc and protoc plugin, you can generate Java Lite code
+for your .proto files:
+
+    $ protoc --javalite_out=${OUTPUT_DIR} path/to/your/proto/file
+
+Include the generated Java files in your project and add a dependency on the
+protobuf Java runtime. If you are using Maven, use the following:
+
+```xml
+<dependency>
+  <groupId>com.google.protobuf</groupId>
+  <artifactId>protobuf-lite</artifactId>
+  <version>3.0.1</version>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+Make sure the version number of the runtime matches (or is newer than) the
+version number of the protoc plugin. The version number of the protoc doesn't
+matter and any version >= 3.0.0 should work.
+
+### Use Protobuf Java Lite Runtime with Bazel
+
+Bazel has native build rules to work with protobuf. For Java Lite runtime,
+you can use the `java_lite_proto_library` rule. Check out [our build files
+examples](../examples/BUILD) to learn how to use it.
