 ## Features
 
-- 🫂 Rempts prevents you from fighting with your CLI tool
-- ✨ Rempts is your end-to-end CLI UI + command framework
-- 💪 Made for DX precision and high-context terminal UX
-- 📂 File-based commands (app router style by default)
-- 🏎️ Prompt engine that *feels* modern, actually is
-- 🧠 Type-safe from args to prompts
-- ⚡ Blazing-fast, no runtime baggage
-- 🧩 Router + argument parser built-in
-- 🎨 Customizable themes, styled output
-- 🚨 Crash-safe (Ctrl+C, SIGINT, errors)
-- 🪄 Minimal API surface, max expressiveness
-- 🧪 Scriptable for testing, stable for production
-- 🆕 Automatic commands creation (via `dler rempts init --cmd my-cool-cmd`)
-- 🏞️ No more hacking together `inquirer`, `citty`, `commander`, `chalk`
