+Atomicapp Lifecycle Definition
+==============================
+
+The Atomic App software allows for several actions to be applied to
+specified applications. The four actions that exist today are briefly
+described below.
+
+`genanswers`
+------------
+Will download and combine artifacts from the target application in a
+temporary directory and then take the generated sample answers.conf
+file and populate it in the users working directory. The temporary 
+directory is then cleaned up.
+
+`fetch`
+-------
+Will download and combine artifacts from the target application and any 
+dependent applications including sample answers.conf file into a local 
+directory for inspection and/or modification. Same for all providers.
+
+`run`
+-----
+Run an application.
+
+| Provider      | Implementation |
+| ------------- | -------------- |
+| Docker        | Run application containers on local machine. |
+| Kubernetes    | Run requested application in kubernetes target environment. |
+| Openshift     | Run requested application in OpenShift target environment. |
+| Marathon      | Run requested application in Marathon target environment. |
+
+`stop`
+------
+Stop an application. 
+
+| Provider      | Implementation |
+| ------------- | -------------- |
+| Docker        | Stop application containers on local machine. |
+| Kubernetes    | Stop requested application in kubernetes target environment. |
+| Openshift     | Stop requested application in OpenShift target environment. |
+| Marathon      | Stop requested application in Marathon target environment. |
