-Chisel is a Wordpress Starter Theme powered by Timber library that helps to seprate the logic from view by using Twig engine to render html content. It also simplifies the code, makes it more readable and speeds up development.
+Chisel is a custom WordPress development framework we built to make developers’ lives easier. It streamlines theme development with a modern stack — Webpack, Timber, and ITCSS — ensuring faster coding, cleaner structure, and more maintainable projects.

+
+## Updating Chisel
+
+To check if a new version of Chisel is available:
+
+```bash
+npm run check-update
+```
+
+To update the core files to the latest version:
+
+```bash
+npm run update-chisel
+```
+
+Or run both at once:
+
+```bash
+npm run update
+```
+
+**Note:** The update command will overwrite all files in the `core/` folder.
+
+## Core Folder Protection
+
+The `core/` folder contains base Chisel files that are updated automatically when you run `npm run update-chisel`. A pre-commit hook will warn you if you try to commit changes to these files.
+
+### Setting Up Git Hooks
+
+Git hooks are set up automatically by the Chisel generator if git is already initialized. If you cloned the project or ran `git init` after installation, run:
+
+```bash
+npm run prepare
+```
+
+### Recommended Approach
+
+Instead of modifying core files directly, create corresponding files in the `custom/` folder:
+
+| Instead of modifying...          | Create/modify...                       |
+|----------------------------------|----------------------------------------|
+| `core/WP/Site.php`               | `custom/app/WP/Site.php`               |
+| `core/Helpers/ImageHelpers.php`  | `custom/app/Helpers/ImageHelpers.php`  |
+| `core/Timber/ChiselPost.php`     | `custom/app/Timber/ChiselPost.php`     |
+
+### Bypassing the Hook
+
+If you understand the implications and need to commit core changes anyway:
+
+```bash
+# Option 1: Skip verification
+git commit --no-verify
+
+# Option 2: Use environment variable
+CHISEL_SKIP_CORE_CHECK=1 git commit
+```
