+  Alacritty is the fastest terminal emulator in existence. Using the GPU
+  for rendering enables optimizations that simply aren't possible in
+  other emulators.
+
+  Alacritty is focused on simplicity and performance. The performance
+  goal means it should be faster than any other terminal emulator
+  available. The simplicity goal means that it doesn't have features
+  such as tabs or splits (which can be better provided by a window
+  manager or terminal multiplexer) nor niceties like a GUI config editor.
+  
+  The software is considered to be at an alpha level of readiness—there 
+  are missing features and bugs to be fixed, but it is already used by 
+  many as a daily driver.
