+# Quantum
+
+[Cron](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron)-like job scheduler for [Elixir](http://elixir-lang.org/) applications.
+
+## Setup
+
+To use this plug in your projects, edit your mix.exs file and add the project as a dependency:
+
+```elixir
+defp deps do
+  [
+    { :quantum, ">= 1.0.0" }
+  ]
+end
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```elixir
+Quantum.cron("0 18-6/2 * * *", fn -> IO.puts("it's late") end)
+Quantum.cron("@daily", &backup/0)
+```

+# This file is responsible for configuring your application
+# and its dependencies with the aid of the Mix.Config module.
+use Mix.Config
+
+# This configuration is loaded before any dependency and is restricted
+# to this project. If another project depends on this project, this
+# file won't be loaded nor affect the parent project. For this reason,
+# if you want to provide default values for your application for third-
+# party users, it should be done in your mix.exs file.
+
+# Sample configuration:
+#
+#     config :logger, :console,
+#       level: :info,
+#       format: "$date $time [$level] $metadata$message\n",
+#       metadata: [:user_id]
+
+# It is also possible to import configuration files, relative to this
+# directory. For example, you can emulate configuration per environment
+# by uncommenting the line below and defining dev.exs, test.exs and such.
+# Configuration from the imported file will override the ones defined
+# here (which is why it is important to import them last).
+#
+#     import_config "#{Mix.env}.exs"
