 # birdpad
 A minimalist but good-looking text editor for Windows and macOS.
+
+I created this project while on the search for a text editor that felt native to my machine.
+
+WordPad and Notepad served very well for a while, but with Windows 11, WordPad was deprecated and Notepad started looking like a generic web app, so I had to continue looking.
+
+Then, I rememebered BirdPad, an old hobby project I'd made privately a few months prior.
+
+I improved the UI and added functionality, and BirdPad as we know it today was born.
+
+Now, I've added support for macOS, and I've improved window resizing greatly.
+
+# Requirements
+- Either an x86_64 Windows PC or a Mac with macOS and Apple Silicon
+- ~10 megabytes of unused space
+
+# Installation
+Open the Releases tab, and download the latest build for your device.
+
+BirdPad is portable, but on macOS you can always drag it to your Applications folder.
