-## What is Cyder
-
-Funny you should ask this question, I'm asked it quite a lot and usually fail to give a comprehensive and elegant
-answer. The best I can do is something along the lines of "Cyder is a multi-purpose, desktop manager, GUI tool." It is
-written using a custom Swing UI library which was built on top of lightweight Swing components. No modern GUI
-dependencies such as [FlatLaf](https://github.com/JFormDesigner/FlatLaf), [MaterialFX](https://github.com/palexdev/MaterialFX)
-or [FXML](https://openjfx.io/) were used, thus all Cyder components are closely related to [java/awt/Component.java](https://developer.classpath.org/doc/java/awt/Component-source.html).
-
-Some examples of what you can do with Cyder include:
-
-* Downloading Audio from a YouTube video, playlist, uuid, or link
-* Image transforms, markup, and painting
-* Evaluating mathematical expressions as simple as 2 * 2 or as complex as sin(e^pi*cos(64^cos(e^-1)))
-* Visualizing algorithms such as A*, Graham Scan, Game of Life
-* Converting audio files between formats such as wav and mp3
-* Playing local audio files with the ability to "dreamify"
-* Hashing inputs with a nice hashing widget using algorithms such as MD5, SHA1, and SHA256
-* Reading, writing, and storing notes
-* Demonstrating how Perlin noise works in both 2D and 3D with a visualizer
-* Converting between temperature formats such as Kelvin, Fahrenheit, and Celsius
-* Storing and running shortcuts
-* Playing games such as hangman or nxn tic-tac-toe

-## Usage and Setup
-
-To get started with Cyder, first download your favorite Java IDE such as IntelliJ, NetBeans, Eclipse, etc. You'll then
-want to make sure the IDE supports gradle operations. Next, clone Cyder
-via `git clone https://github.com/NathanCheshire/Cyder.git --depth 1`. If you don't absolutely require the entire git
-history, I highly recommend shallow cloning as the extensive git history is quit large. Now load the project in your IDE
-and allow the gradle setup task to run and the IDE to synchronize. Now you'll be able to run Cyder by a runtime
-configuration which invokes the main method inside of `Cyder.java`. Once started, Cyder should recognize there are no
-users found and prompt for the creation of a user. Go ahead and create an account now.
-
-For development purposes, you may want to add three props within a props file:
-
-1. `autocypher` set to true.
-2. `autocypher_name` set to your user's username.
-3. `autocypher_password` set to your user's hashed password (hash your password once using SHA256).
-
-These props should be annotated with the `@no_log` annotation to ensure their values do not appear in any log files.
-Additionally, your the props file containing your password should be added to your .gitignore file to avoid VCS
-tracking. Cyder double hashes passwords to help prevent rainbow table lookups. However, leaving your singly-hashed
-SHA256 autocypher password exposed leaves you more prone to attacks.
