+# JDT Debug
+
+JDT Debug implements Java debugging support and works with any JDPA-compliant target Java VM.
+It is implemented on top of the language independent "debug model" provided by the platform debugger. 
+JDT debug provides the following debugging features:
+
+- Launching of a Java VM in either run or debug mode
+- Attaching to a running Java VM
+- Expression evaluation in the context of a stack frame
+- Scrapbook pages for interactive Java code snippet evaluation
+- Dynamic class reloading where supported by Java virtual machine
+
+For more information about JDT Debug refer to the [JDT Debug website](https://eclipse.dev/eclipse/debug/index.php).
+For general information about JDT and important links, refer to the [JDT wiki page](https://github.com/eclipse-jdt/eclipse.jdt.core/wiki) or the [JDT project overview page](https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/eclipse.jdt).

+## Contributing
+
+[Contributions are always welcome!](https://github.com/eclipse-jdt/.github/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md)
+
+Please bear in mind that this project is almost entirely developed by volunteers.
+If you do not provide the implementation yourself (or pay someone to do it for you), the bug might never get fixed.
+If it is a serious bug, other people than you might care enough to provide a fix.
