 ## Features
 
 **Use cases:**
-- shared notepad on multiple machines
+- shared notepad across multiple machines
 - collaboration on the same notepage with multiple people (notes, config, etc)
-- config changes in aukpad > `curl -o app.conf https://aukpad.com/{pad_id}/raw` > change config in aukpad > repeat `curl` command
+- piping configs: `curl -o app.conf https://aukpad.com/{pad_id}/raw` → edit in aukpad → repeat
 
-**Available**:
-- live collab notepad
-- line numbers
-- custom path `{pad_id}` for more privacy (1–64 chars, `[a-zA-Z0-9_-]`)
-- optional caching with valkey/redis
-- pad creation with HTTP post requests with curl (see *Usage*)
-- `{pad_id}/raw` HTTP endpoint 
-- optional password protection (HTTP endpoint accessible with GET /{pad_id}/raw?pw=mysecurepasswordhunter2)
+**Editor:**
+- real-time WebSocket collaboration with cursor preservation across remote edits
+- per-pad password protection (PBKDF2-SHA256), with a built-in password generator in the UI
+- line numbers; Tab inserts 4 spaces
+- dark / light mode (auto-detects system preference, manual toggle)
+- copy-to-clipboard and "new pad" buttons, live peer count in the header
 
-**Ideas**:
+**Endpoints:**
+- custom pad path `{pad_id}` (1–64 chars, `[a-zA-Z0-9_-]`); auto-generated IDs are 8-char `[a-z0-9]`
+- `POST /` — create a pad from request body (curl-friendly, see *Usage*)
+- `GET /{pad_id}/raw` — raw text (auth via `?pw=…` for protected pads)
+- `GET /system/info` — instance configuration page
+- WebSocket `/ws/{pad_id}` — live collaboration
+
+**Deployment:**
+- optional Valkey/Redis cache for cross-restart persistence
+- configurable text-size, connection, room, and retention limits
+- per-IP rate limiting (pad creation + failed password attempts), reverse-proxy aware
+- distroless, non-root, read-only-rootfs container image
