+
+## ✨ Installation
+
+Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:
+
+```console
+bundle add kettle-dev
+```
+
+If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:
+
+```console
+gem install kettle-dev
+```
+
+### 🔒 Secure Installation
+
+<details>
+  <summary>For Medium or High Security Installations</summary>
+
+This gem is cryptographically signed, and has verifiable [SHA-256 and SHA-512][💎SHA_checksums] checksums by
+[stone_checksums][💎stone_checksums]. Be sure the gem you install hasn’t been tampered with
+by following the instructions below.
+
+Add my public key (if you haven’t already, expires 2045-04-29) as a trusted certificate:
+
+```console
+gem cert --add <(curl -Ls https://raw.github.com/galtzo-floss/certs/main/pboling.pem)
+```
+
+You only need to do that once.  Then proceed to install with:
+
+```console
+gem install kettle-dev -P HighSecurity
+```
+
+The `HighSecurity` trust profile will verify signed gems, and not allow the installation of unsigned dependencies.
+
+If you want to up your security game full-time:
+
+```console
+bundle config set --global trust-policy MediumSecurity
+```
+
+`MediumSecurity` instead of `HighSecurity` is necessary if not all the gems you use are signed.
+
+NOTE: Be prepared to track down certs for signed gems and add them the same way you added mine.

+## ⚙️ Configuration
+
+
+## 🔧 Basic Usage
+
+
+## 🦷 FLOSS Funding
+
+While kettle-rb tools are free software and will always be, the project would benefit immensely from some funding.
+Raising a monthly budget of... "dollars" would make the project more sustainable.
+
+We welcome both individual and corporate sponsors! We also offer a
+wide array of funding channels to account for your preferences.
+Currently, [GitHub Sponsors][🖇sponsor], and [Liberapay][⛳liberapay] are our preferred funding platforms.
+
+**If you're working in a company that's making significant use of kettle-rb tools we'd
+appreciate it if you suggest to your company to become a kettle-rb sponsor.**
+
+You can support the development of kettle-rb tools via
+[GitHub Sponsors][🖇sponsor],
+[Liberapay][⛳liberapay],
+[PayPal][🖇paypal],
+and [Tidelift][🏙️entsup-tidelift].
+
+| 📍 NOTE                                                                                                                                                                                                              |
+|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| If doing a sponsorship in the form of donation is problematic for your company <br/> from an accounting standpoint, we'd recommend the use of Tidelift, <br/> where you can get a support-like subscription instead. |

+### Another way to support open-source
+
+> How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.<br/>
+>—Anne Frank
+
+I’m driven by a passion to foster a thriving open-source community – a space where people can tackle complex problems, no matter how small.  Revitalizing libraries that have fallen into disrepair, and building new libraries focused on solving real-world challenges, are my passions — totaling 79 hours of FLOSS coding over just the past seven days, a pretty regular week for me.  I was recently affected by layoffs, and the tech jobs market is unwelcoming. I’m reaching out here because your support would significantly aid my efforts to provide for my family, and my farm (11 🐔 chickens, 2 🐶 dogs, 3 🐰 rabbits, 8 🐈‍ cats).
+
+If you work at a company that uses my work, please encourage them to support me as a corporate sponsor. My work on gems you use might show up in `bundle fund`.
+
+I’m developing a new library, [floss_funding][🖇floss-funding-gem], designed to empower open-source developers like myself to get paid for the work we do, in a sustainable way. Please give it a look.

+## 📌 Versioning
+
+This Library adheres to [![Semantic Versioning 2.0.0][📌semver-img]][📌semver].
+Violations of this scheme should be reported as bugs.
+Specifically, if a minor or patch version is released that breaks backward compatibility,
+a new version should be immediately released that restores compatibility.
+Breaking changes to the public API will only be introduced with new major versions.
+
+> dropping support for a platform is both obviously and objectively a breaking change <br/>
+>—Jordan Harband ([@ljharb](https://github.com/ljharb), maintainer of SemVer) [in SemVer issue 716][📌semver-breaking]
+
+I understand that policy doesn't work universally ("exceptions to every rule!"),
+but it is the policy here.
+As such, in many cases it is good to specify a dependency on this library using
+the [Pessimistic Version Constraint][📌pvc] with two digits of precision.
+
+For example:
+
+```ruby
+spec.add_dependency("kettle-dev", "~> 1.0")
+```
+
+<details>
+<summary>📌 Is "Platform Support" part of the public API? More details inside.</summary>
+
+SemVer should, IMO, but doesn't explicitly, say that dropping support for specific Platforms
+is a *breaking change* to an API.
+It is obvious to many, but not all, and since the spec is silent, the bike shedding is endless.
+
+To get a better understanding of how SemVer is intended to work over a project's lifetime,
+read this article from the creator of SemVer:

+## 🤑 A request for help
+
+Maintainers have teeth and need to pay their dentists.
+After getting laid off in an RIF in March and filled with many dozens of rejections,
+I'm now spending ~60+ hours a week building open source tools.
+I'm hoping to be able to pay for my kids' health insurance this month,
+so if you value the work I am doing, I need your support.
+Please consider sponsoring me or the project.
