+# fredit: front-end edit
+
+fredit is a simple, no-frills Rails Engine that lets you edit your Rails
+application's view templates, css stylesheets, and javascript files
+(a.k.a front-end files) through the browser.
+
+fredit injects an edit link into every view template. These edit links
+are visible wherever the template is rendered, whether it is a layout,
+a page, or a partial. 
+
+By clicking on these links, you call up a edit page that will let you
+directly edit the source, whether it is ERB, css, or javascript. An
+update button lets you save these changes and alter the underlying
+source files.
+
+Stylesheets and javascript files are accessible through a file selection
+drop down on the fredit edit page. 
+
+You can also create and delete front-end files on the fredit edit page.
+
+**NOTE:** Currently only ERB template handlers are supported. You are welcome to
+fork and add support for Haml and other templates.
+
+
+## Why fredit?
+
+
+
+## Install
+
+Put something like this in the `Gemfile` of your Rails app:
+
+    group :staging do
+      gem 'fredit'
+    end
+
+and then run `RAILS_ENV=staging bundle install`, adjusting the
+`RAILS_ENV` to your target environment.
+
+
+
+
+## fredit's git workflow
+
+fredit assumes that the Rails instance it is running on is a cloned git
+repository. 
+
+When you save your changes, fredit will make a git commit on
+the git branch this instance of Rails application.
+
+Clicking on fredit link will take you to a simple web-based editor where
+you can directly edit the source of the view template.
+
+
+
+commit these edits on a git branch and attribute commits to the author
+
+
