-
-## Installation
-
-### Global Installation
-
-```bash
-npm install -g ezpm2gui
-```
-
-### Local Installation
-
-```bash
-npm install ezpm2gui
-```
-
-## Usage
-
-### As a Command Line Tool (Global Installation)
-
-```bash
-# Start the EZ PM2 GUI web interface
-ezpm2gui
-
-# Start on a specific port
-ezpm2gui --port 4000
-
-# Start bound to all network interfaces
-ezpm2gui --host 0.0.0.0
-
-# Generate a sample PM2 ecosystem config
-ezpm2gui-generate-ecosystem
-```
-
-### As a Module (Local Installation)
-
-```javascript
-const ezpm2gui = require('ezpm2gui');
-
-// Start the server with default options
-ezpm2gui.start();
-
-// Or with custom options
-ezpm2gui.start({
-  port: 3030,
-  host: '0.0.0.0'
-});
-```
-
-### Access the UI
-
-Once started, open your browser and navigate to:
-
-```
-http://localhost:3001
-```
-
-## Requirements
-
-- Node.js 16.x or later
-- PM2 installed globally (`npm install -g pm2`)
-
-## Configuration
-
-EZ PM2 GUI uses environment variables for configuration:
-
-- `PORT`: The port to run the server on (default: 3001)
-- `HOST`: The host to bind to (default: localhost)
-
-## Load Balancing with PM2
-
-EZ PM2 GUI provides an easy interface to manage PM2's load balancing capabilities:
-
-### Setting Up Load Balancing
-
-1. **Deploy a new application or modify an existing one**: 
-   - Set the number of instances to greater than 1 (or 0/-1 for max instances based on CPU cores)
-   - Choose "Cluster" as the execution mode for optimal load balancing
-
-2. **Manage your cluster**:
-   - Use the Cluster Management section to scale instances up or down
-   - Switch between fork and cluster execution modes
-   - Reload all instances with zero downtime
-
-### How Load Balancing Works
-
-PM2 provides built-in load balancing when you run your Node.js applications in cluster mode with multiple instances:
-
-- **Cluster Mode**: In this mode, PM2 uses Node.js's cluster module to create multiple worker processes that share the same server port
-- **Multiple Instances**: Incoming requests are automatically distributed across your instances
-- **Zero Downtime Reloads**: When updating your application, PM2 can reload instances one by one to avoid downtime
-
-### Best Practices
-
-- For CPU-intensive applications, use a number of instances equal to the number of CPU cores
-- For I/O-intensive applications, you can use more instances than CPU cores
-- Always use cluster mode for load balancing to ensure port sharing between instances
-- Use the reload feature instead of restart for zero-downtime deployments

-## FAQ
-
-### Q: How does EZ PM2 GUI differ from pm2-gui and PM2 Plus?
-
-A: EZ PM2 GUI is a modern, TypeScript-based alternative to pm2-gui with a more user-friendly interface and additional features. Unlike PM2 Plus, it's completely free and open-source, running locally on your server rather than in the cloud.
-
-### Q: Can I use EZ PM2 GUI with PM2 running on a different machine?
-
-A: Yes, you can configure EZ PM2 GUI to connect to a remote PM2 installation. You'll need to specify the connection details in the application settings.
-
-### Q: How do I generate an ecosystem file from my existing processes?
-
-A: Use the `ezpm2gui-generate-ecosystem` command-line tool, or visit the Ecosystem Config section in the web UI.
-
-### Q: Can EZ PM2 GUI handle a large number of processes?
-
-A: Yes, EZ PM2 GUI is designed to handle dozens of processes efficiently. The UI is optimized to present large amounts of information in a digestible format.
-
-### Q: Is EZ PM2 GUI secure?
-
-A: By default, EZ PM2 GUI binds to localhost for security reasons. If you expose the interface to other machines, consider adding authentication through a reverse proxy like Nginx.
