-A cross-platform declarative <s>and scriptable (WIP)</s> build system for c++ with the addition of letting you run any c++ files as a script, just like python!
+runcpp2 is a simple declarable, scriptable, flexible cross-platform build system build system for c or c++
 
-### 🛠️ Prerequisites
-- Any C++ compiler. The default user config only has g++ and msvc profiles. But feel free to
+- 🚀 **Simple**: `runcpp2 main.cpp`, this is all you need to get started
+- 📝 **Declarable**: *Quick, Concise, Minimal* YAML format
+- 🔧 **Scriptable**: *Customize, Run And Debug* your build pipeline with c++, or just use it as a script. 
+                     No longer need to juggle between CMake, Python, Bash, Batch, Lua, etc...
+- 🪜 **Flexible**: *YAML* for small project, *c++* for finer control
+
+For more information, see [Full Documentation](https://neko-box-coder.github.io/runcpp2/latest/)
+
+## 🛠️ Prerequisites
+- Any c or c++ compiler. The default user config only has g++ and msvc profiles. But feel free to
 add other compilers.
 
-### 📥️ Installation
+## 📥️ Installation
 You can either build from source or use the binary release
 
-To build from source:
-1. Clone the repository with `git clone --recursive https://github.com/Neko-Box-Coder/runcpp2.git`
-2. Run `Build.sh` or `Build.bat` to build
-
 Binary Release (Only Linux and Windows for now): 
 [https://github.com/Neko-Box-Coder/runcpp2/releases](https://github.com/Neko-Box-Coder/runcpp2/releases)
 
 
 Finally, you just need to add runcpp2 binary location to the `PATH` environment variable and 
 you can run c++ files anywhere you want.
 
-### ⚡️ Getting Started
+## ⚡️ Getting Started
 
-#### 1. Running directly
+### 1. Running source file directly
 Suppose you have a c++ file called `script.cpp`, you can run it immediately by doing 
 
+> *shell*
 ```shell
 runcpp2 ./script.cpp <any arguments>
 ```
 
 > [!NOTE]
-> On Unix, if you have added runcpp2 to your PATH and add this line `//bin/true;runcpp2 "$0" "$@"; exit;` to the top of your script, you can run the script directly by `./script.cpp <arguments>`
+> On Unix, if you have added runcpp2 to your PATH and add this line `//bin/true;runcpp2 "$0" "$@"; exit $?;` 
+> to the top of your script, you can run the script directly by `./script.cpp <arguments>`
 
-#### 2. Watch and give compile errors
+---
+
+### 2. Watch and give compile errors
 If you want to edit the script but want to have feedback for any error, you can use "watch" mode.
 
+> *shell*
 ```shell
 runcpp2 --watch ./script.cpp
 ```
 
-#### 3. Adding script build settings
-If you want to add custom build settings such as compile/link flags, specify profile, etc. 
-You will need to provide such settings to runcpp2 in the format of YAML.
-
-This build settings can either be embedded as comment in the script itself, or provided as 
-a YAML file.
+---
 
-To generate a script build settings template, do 
+### 3. Sepcifying Build Settings
+Build settings such as compile/link flags, external dependencies, command hooks, etc.
+can be spcified inlined inside a source file or as a separate yaml file in the format of YAML
 
-```shell
-# Embeds the build settings template as comment
-runcpp2 --create-script-template ./script.cpp
-
-# Creates the build settings template as dedicated yaml file
-runcpp2 --create-script-template ./script.yaml
-
-# Short form
-runcpp2 -t ./script.cpp
-```
+- To specify build settings in a dedicated yaml file:
+    - The yaml file in the same directory and share the same as the source file being run will be used
+- To specify inline build settings inside a source file: 
+    - Put them inside a comment with `runcpp2` at the beginning of the build settings
+    - The inline build settings can exist in anywhere of the source file
+    - Both inline (but continuous) comments (`//`) and block comments are supported (`/* */`)
 
-This will generate the script build settings template for you. 
-Everything is documented as comment in the template but here's a quick summary.
-
-- `RequiredProfiles`: To specify a specific profile for building for different platforms
-- `OverrideCompileFlags`: Compile flags to be added or removed from the current profile
-- `OverrideLinkFlags`: Same as `OverrideCompileFlags` but for linking
-- `OtherFilesToBeCompiled`: Other source files you wish to be compiled.
-- `Dependencies`: Any external libraries you wish to use. See next section.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> Settings in the script info are passed directly to the shell. Be cautious when using user-provided input in your build commands.
-
-#### 4. Using External Libraries
-
-To use any external libraries, you need to specify them in the Dependencies section.
-Here's a quick run down on the important fields
-
-- `Source`: This specifies the source of the external dependency. 
-It can either be type `Git` or `Local` where it will clone the repository if it is `Git` or 
-copy the library folder in the filesystem if it is `Local`
-- `LibraryType`: This specifies the dependency type to be either `Static`, `Object`, `Shared` 
-or `Header`
-- `IncludePaths`: The include paths relative to the root of the dependency folder
-- `LinkProperties`: Settings for linking
-- `Setup`, `Build` and `Cleanup`: List of shell commands for one time setup, building and 
-cleaning up
-
-To access the source files of the dependencies, you can specify runcpp2 to build locally in 
-the current working directory by passing the `--local` flag. This is useful when you want to
-look at the headers of the dependencies.
+For a complete list of build settings, see [Build Settings](https://neko-box-coder.github.io/runcpp2/latest/build_settings/) or generate the template with
 
+> *shell*
 ```shell
-runcpp2 --local ./script.cpp
+runcpp2 --create-script-template ./script.cpp   # Embeds the build settings template as comment
+runcpp2 --create-script-template ./script.yaml  # Creates the build settings template as dedicated yaml file
+runcpp2 -t ./script.cpp                         # Short form
 ```
 
-This will create a `.runcpp2` folder in the current working directory, and all the builds and dependencies will be inside it.
