+# CW Generator
+A simple application for generating self-made morse / CW audio files. All it features is a button as
+a morse key and allows you to export this as a WAV. Optionally, a MIDI keyboard can be used as a
+morse key.
+
+## Known Limitations / TODO
+MIDI support only works locally for now.
+ * webmidi might be an option: https://gist.github.com/srejv/b7198e25587e2d8e0a66860781b56852
+
+Currently we can only export wav, as Godot itself doesn't include any encoders. Having the ability
+to export as mp3, ogg or opus would be nice, but external libraries are kind of a hassle. opus would
+be the nicest format, but doesn't seem to work with older Iphones.
