Abstract
This article is a very basic introduction to supersymmetry. It introduces the two kinds of superfields needed for supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, the chiral superfield and the vector superfield, and discusses in detail how to construct supersymmetric, gauge invariant Lagrangians. The main ideas on how to break supersymmetry spontaneously are also covered. The article is meant to provide a platform for further reading.
