 ## @0xproject/sol-compiler
 
-This repository contains a CLI tool that facilitates compiling smart contracts.
+Sol-compiler is a wrapper around [solc-js](https://www.npmjs.com/package/solc) that adds:
+
+*   Smart re-compilation: Only recompiles when smart contracts have changed
+*   Ability to compile an entire project instead of only individual `.sol` files
+*   Compilation using the Solidity version specified at the top of each individual `.sol` file
+*   Proper parsing of Solidity version ranges
+*   Support for the standard [input description](https://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/develop/using-the-compiler.html#input-description) for what information you'd like added to the resulting `artifacts` file (i.e 100% configurable artifacts content).
 
 ### Read the [Documentation](https://0xproject.com/docs/sol-compiler).

 ## @0xproject/web3-wrapper
 
-Wrapped version of web3 with a nicer interface that is used across 0x projects and packages.
+Web3-wrapper is a JSON-RPC client for Ethereum nodes. It is a type-safe alternative to [Web3.js](https://github.com/ethereum/web3.js/) written in TypeScript.

-Welcome to the [sol-compiler](https://github.com/0xProject/0x-monorepo/tree/development/packages/sol-compiler) documentation! Sol-compiler is a tool for compiling Solidity smart contracts and generating artifacts with ease.
-
-It serves a similar purpose as parts of the [Truffle framework](http://truffleframework.com/), but with the UNIX philosophy in mind: Make each program do one thing well. This tool is for intermediate to advanced Solidity developers that require greater configurability and reliability.
-
-Sol-compiler has the following advantages over Truffle:
-
-*   Compile each smart contract with a specific version of Solidity.
-*   Improved artifact files:
-    *   Storage of constructor args, source maps and paths to all requisite source files.
-    *   An easy to maintain codebase: TypeScript + Single repo.
-    *   Supports Solidity version ranges - contract compiled with latest Solidity version that satisfies the range.
-
-Sol-compiler can be used as a command-line tool or as an imported module.
