-## 📦 Including This Library in Your Project
-
-What you need to do:
-
-1. Add the GitHub Packages registry to your Maven settings so Maven can resolve the artifact from GitHub’s Maven
-   Artifactory.
-2. Update your pom.xml (or Gradle build) to point to the new coordinates once they’re published.
-3. For a complete walkthrough—including how to generate a PAT and configure Maven/Gradle—see GitHub’s official
-   documentation: [🔗 Authenticating to GitHub Packages (Maven)](https://docs.github.com/en/packages/working-with-a-github-packages-registry/working-with-the-apache-maven-registry#authenticating-to-github-packages)

+        A lightweight Maven plugin based on the JavaFX Maven Plugin with three goals: fxml‑source generates type‑safe
+        Java classes from FXML at compile time; run launches the app for development; jlink builds a minimal
+        self‑contained runtime image. Requires Java 25+, a modular project, and provides config for packages, debugging,
+        logging, native binaries.
