+## Orbit CSS overview
 
-## 🖖 Orbit in a nutshell
+**Orbit** is a CSS framework designed for creating radial layouts. It offers simplicity, effectiveness, ease of use, and tremendous versatility for crafting compelling designs. It offers extensive customization options and supports nesting for building intricate designs tailored to your requirements.
 
-**Orbit** is the first general-purpose CSS framework designed specifically for radial user interfaces. We've used the latest CSS features to make building radial layouts a breeze. It provides intuitive CSS classes and Custom Elements for building radial menus, dashboards, creative portfolios, or a cutting-edge applications.
 
 ## Why Orbit?
 
-Because creating radial UIs generally involves resorting to JS or other languages to calculate angles, radius, distances, etc. **Orbit** helps and saves you a lot of time by allowing you to build these UIs with just CSS.
-
-## Status
-> We’re in the early stages of development, things are still evolving. You’re welcome to explore and experiment, but keep in mind that names, features, and functionalities may change as we refine our project. We appreciate your understanding and flexibility during this exciting phase!

 ## What is radial UI?
 
-Radial UI refers to a design paradigm where elements are organized and laid out in a circular or radial pattern, rather than the traditional grid-based or linear layouts. This approach can create visually appealing and intuitive interfaces, especially for applications that involve:
+Radial UI refers to a design paradigm where elements are organized in a circular or radial pattern, diverging from traditional grid-based or linear layouts. This design approach is particularly effective for applications that involve:

-- Navigation menus or controls (e.g., radial or pie menus, circular scrolling)
-- Dashboards (e.g., car dashboards, infotainment, smart-home dashboards)

-- Circular layout: Elements are arranged in a circular or curved pattern.
-- Center-focused: The center of the circle often serves as a focal point.
-- Symmetry: Radial UIs often exhibit symmetry, creating a sense of balance.

 ## 🏁 Quick start
 
-### Basic Orbit layout
-
-Just add `.bigbang` CSS class in a HTML element like `<div>`. Then use `.gravity-spot` class, and within it, add another element with `.orbit` class. Finally, inside `.orbit` element, add radial elements, such us: `.satellite`, `.vector`, `.side`, or `<o-text>`, `<o-arc>`, `<o-progress>` web components . Here’s a minimal working example:
-
 ```html
-<!DOCTYPE html>
-<html lang="en">
-  <head>
-    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
-    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/@zumer/orbit@latest/dist/orbit.css" />
-    <script src="https://unpkg.com/@zumer/orbit@latest/dist/orbit.js" defer></script>

-        </div>
-        <div class="orbit">
-          <o-text>Curved text</o-text>
-        </div>
-      </div>

     </div>

-## Radial elements
-
-### Bigbang
-
-The foundation of every Orbit project, serving as a container for your application.
-
-### Gravity-spot
-
-The parent container for organizing Orbit elements within a radial layout.
-
-### Orbit
-
-Defines a circular path around a .gravity-spot, with variations from .orbit-0 to .orbit-24. Within .orbit element, various Orbit elements such as `satellites`, `o-arcs`, `o-progress`, `vectors`, `sides`, and `o-texts` can be positioned.
-
-### Satellite
- 
- Places elements along an .orbit or .orbit-* path, serving as content containers or nesting points for other orbits.
-
-### Vector
-
-Renders perpendicular lines across orbits, perfect for creating connector lines or minute marks.
-
-### Side
-
-Generates a regular polygon figure when used with other sides.
-
-### O-Text
-
-A web-component for rendering curved text.
-
-### o-arc
-
-A web-component for rendering radial slices, arcs, or pies.
-
-### O-Progress
-
-A web-component for rendering a radial progress bar.
-
