+# Polypheny Client
 
+_Polypheny Client_ is a client for querying Polypheny-DB. It connects to Polypheny-DB via JDBC using the [JDBC Driver](https://github.com/polypheny/Polypheny-JDBC-Driver).
 
+This client contains a [Chronos](https://github.com/chronos-eaas) connector. This allows to easily execute evaluation campaigns.
 
-## Credits
-The first version of this client has been created by Silvan Heller and Manuel Hürbin.
+
+## Getting Started ##

+
+```
