We give an alternate description of Koiter's shell equation that does not depend on the special mid surface coordinates, but uses differential operators defined on the mid surface.:1. Introduction
2. Basic differential geometry
3. The strain tensor and its simplifications
4. Linearization to small strain and coordinate free description
5. The resulting Koiter energy
