 # QuickStatic 🚀🦀🔥
 
-## The First static site generator build specifically for [Djot](https://djot.net) (A more powerful but strict Markdown dialect)
+The first and fast static site generator built in Rust specifically for [Djot](https://djot.net?utm_source=https://github.com/tonyalaribe/quickstatic) (a more powerful but strict markdown dialect).
 
-A fast static site generator written in Rust 🦀🚀.
-A QuickStatic site should show the content first, and hide themes or configuration away. 
-We spend more time writing content than editing website templates and configs.
+</div>
 
-We should lean into features in markdown, such as directives and custom attributes, for adding features and components to markdow, instead of supporting MDX.

 ## Priorities 
 
-- Simplicity 
-- Stability (Few features, and should not change very much)
+A QuickStatic site should show the content first, and hide themes or configuration details. We spend more time writing content than editing website templates and configs. We should lean into features in markdown, such as directives and custom attributes, for adding features and components to markdown, instead of supporting MDX. QuickStatic generates static websites and focuses on doing that in a flexible and fast way. This project prioritizes the following tenets:
+
+- Simplicity.
+- Stability (few features—and should not change very much).
 - Content first. 
 - Super flexible markdown, via extended markdown specifications.
 - Never support MDX (React in markdown). Instead, depend on markdown directives and the markdown attributes extended spec.
 - No asset management or SCSS or LESS or any other automated transpiler support. 
-- Build on top of shopify liquid templates. 
-- Prioritize productivity

+## Installation
 
-## Basic usage
-
-Quickstatic themes should be under `_quickstatic/themes/` directory.
+QuickStatic can be installed using the `cargo` command below (if you don't have Rust Cargo installed already, you should read the [Cargo Installation Guide](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html)).
 
-Quickstatic public or build directory is `quickstatic/public`
+```
+cargo install quickstatic
+```
 
-Everything in the root directory gets copied into the output directory in that order, while markdown files are compiled to html files.
-Anything with a .liquid extension is executed as a template and the .liquid extension striped. 
+## Basic Usage
 
-Eg `sitemap.xml.liquid` would be evaluated and become `sitemap.xml`

 ## Themes and Templates 
 
-QuickStatic themes can be written using the shopify liquid templating language. 
-You can learn more about it here ![https://github.com/Shopify/liquid/wiki/Liquid-for-Designers](https://github.com/Shopify/liquid/wiki/Liquid-for-Designers)
-
-To use any given template file for a particular page, simply reference the template file from the frontmatter.
