+# Greeter
+
+The Greeter demo illustrates how to write a client application with Ice for PHP.
+
+Ice for PHP supports only client-side applications. As a result, you first need to start a Greeter server implemented
+in a language with server-side support, such as Python, Java, or C#.
+
+Then, in a separate window:
+
+- Compile Greeter.ice with the Slice to PHP compiler into Greeter.php
+
+```shell
+slice2php Greeter.ice
+```
+
+- Run the client application
+
+```shell
+php Client.php
+```
