-==========
+<h1 align='center'> libpredict </h1>
 
-A satellite orbit prediction library.
+<h2 align='center'> <strong> A satellite orbit prediction library. </strong> </h2>
 
+This is a fork of **[la1k/libpredict](https://github.com/la1k/libpredict/)** and is inspired by **[philcrump's](https://github.com/philcrump/libpredict/)** fork of the same library. 
 
-Building
---------
+## Major differences from la1k's library
 
-We recommend using out-of-source builds.
+This fork is intended to be used on embedded systems, therefore it supports static allocated
+structs, instead of the dynamic allocated ones from the original library. Another major 
+change is that this fork intends to make the library MISRA-C 2012 compliant, which is 
+a requirement for many critical embedded applications, like spacecraft. Because of 
+compliance, pretty much every single function of the original library will be modified. 
 
-```
-cd $SOURCEDIR
-mkdir build
-cd build
-cmake ..
-make
-```
+## MISRA-C 2012 Compliance Progress
+
+The following list contains the status of the library files:
+
+- [X] Headers
+- [X] Orbit 
+- [ ] Observer
+- [X] SGP4
+- [ ] SDP4
+- [X] Sun
+- [ ] Moon
+- [X] Unsorted
+- [X] Julian Date
+- [ ] Refraction
 
+## Building
 
-Installation
-------------
+To build the library it should be as simple as running:
 
+``` bash
+make
 ```
-make install
+
+To specify a custom build directory you can do as follows:
+
+``` bash
+make BUILD_DIR=/your/build/dir/
 ```
 
-The install location is defined by `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX`, which
-defaults to `/usr/local`. To relocate the whole installation (to make
-usr/local etc. inside another directory, e.g., if you want to make a
-tarball or package it afterwards), use `make DESTDIR=/foo/bar install`.
+To specify a custom toolchain prefix, like the arm-none-eabi, you can do as follows:
 
-Linking
--------
+``` bash
+make TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX=arm-none-eabi- CC_FLAGS_APPEND="-mthumb -mcpu=cortex-m3" 
+```
 
-The library comes with pkg-config information, so the include and
-library paths and flags can be found using the `pkg-config` command or
-by using the `PKG_CHECK_MODULES` autotools macro or CMake command.
+Note that any compiler, linker and ar flags can be appended to the default ones using 
+`CC_FLAGS_APPEND`, `LD_FLAGS_APPEND` and `AR_FLAGS_APPEND` variables. The previous 
+toolchain example shows how its done aswell.
 
-Quickstart
-----------
 
-We recommend to investigate the examples under `examples/` and the API documentation in `include/predict/predict.h`.
+## Installation
 
-A condensed version is that
-```
-predict_orbital_elements_t *orbital_elements = orbital_elements = predict_parse_tle(tle_line_1, tle_line_2);
-```
-parses a TLE in the form of two char arrays to orbital elements representing a satellite, and that
-```
-predict_observer_t *observer = predict_create_observer(name, latitude_radians, longitude_radians, altitude_meters);
-```
-defines a QTH for observation. For prediction,
 ```
-struct predict_position orbit;
-predict_orbit(orbital_elements, &orbit, prediction_time);
-```
-can be used to calculate properties that are independent of an observer (longitude, latitude, ...), while
-```
-struct predict_observation observation;
-predict_observe_orbit(observer, &orbit, &observation);
+make install
 ```
-will convert to properties that will be relative to our observer (azimuth, elevation, ...).
