 Simple plaintext diary.
 
 This project is *very* opinionated and minimal, and is designed primarily for my usage. 
-As a result of this, it is also neither secure nor stable.
+As a result, I can't guarantee that it's either secure or stable.
 
 ## Features:
 * Each day, you get a text file. You have until 23:59 of that very day to finalise it.
 * You can save named notes to document milestones, big events, or just a nice game you played this month*
 * There is also a readme.txt file (just like this one, except you get to write it!)*
-* You can easily export everything in a zip file for backups
+* You can easily export entire `data` dir in a `.zip` archive for backups
 
 * Everything is plain(text) and simple. No databases, encryption, OAuth, or anything fancy. Even the password is plainte- *wait is this a feature?*
 * Docker support (in fact, that's probably the best way to run this)

+You can read a relevant entry in my blog [here](https://a71.su/notes/hibiscus/). 
+It provides some useful information and context for why this app exists in the first place.
+There is also [TODO.md](./TODO.md) file that shows what I will (or *may*) change in the future.

+Below are defaults of config.txt. The settings are defined in newline separated key=value pairs.
+Please don't include the bash-style "comments" in your config, 
+they are provided purely for demonstration only and **will break the config if present**.

+
+### Docker deployment:
+Due to project's simplicity ~~and me rarely using them~~ there are no image tags, I just use `latest` and push to it.
+The [package](https://git.a71.su/Andrew71/hibiscus/packages) provided in this repository is for ` linux/amd64` architecture,
+and there is a [Dockerfile](./Dockerfile) in case you want to compile for something rarer (like a Pi). Below is `compose.yml` that I personally use:
+```yaml
+version: "3.8"
+services:
+  hibiscus:
+    image: git.a71.su/andrew71/hibiscus:latest
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    ports:
+      - "7101:7101"
+    volumes:
+      - path-to-config-dir/config:/config
+      - path-to-data-dir/data:/data
+```
+
+### Executable flags
+If you for some reason decide to run plain executable instead of docker, it supports following flags:
+```
+-config string
+    override config file location
+-user string
+    override username
+-pass string
+    override password
+-port int
+    override port
+```
