-## License
+# Puppeteer vs. p3x-html-pdf: Resource Usage and Features Comparison
 
-This project is licensed under the MIT License.
+When deciding between **Puppeteer** and **p3x-html-pdf**, it's essential to understand their differences in resource usage and capabilities.
+
+## Technology Difference
+
+- **p3x-html-pdf** is built on **wkhtmltopdf**, which uses the WebKit rendering engine. It's lightweight and optimized for HTML-to-PDF tasks.
+- **Puppeteer** launches a full **Chrome/Chromium** instance, consuming more CPU and memory, even in headless mode.
+
+## Resource Usage Comparison
+
+| Feature                | p3x-html-pdf (wkhtmltopdf)                  | Puppeteer (Chrome/Chromium)              |
+|------------------------|---------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------|
+| **Memory Usage**       | Low                                         | High                                     |
+| **CPU Usage**          | Low                                         | High                                     |
+| **Startup Time**       | Fast                                        | Slower due to browser launch            |
+| **Dynamic Content**    | Limited support for JavaScript              | Full support for JavaScript              |
+| **Rendering Accuracy** | Basic CSS and HTML support                  | Pixel-perfect rendering with modern web standards |
+| **Flexibility**        | Headers, footers, scripts (older JS versions) | Highly customizable (headers, footers, scripts) |
+| **Scalability**        | Suitable for lightweight tasks and servers | Better for advanced use cases and large-scale rendering |
+| **File Size**          | Smaller binary for wkhtmltopdf dependency  | Puppeteer requires downloading Chromium (~100MB) |
+
+## Trade-offs
+
+### p3x-html-pdf (wkhtmltopdf)
+- **Pros:**
+  - Lightweight and uses fewer resources.
+  - Faster startup time.
+  - Ideal for static HTML content with minimal JavaScript or CSS.
+
+- **Cons:**
+  - Limited support for modern web standards and advanced JavaScript.
+  - Basic rendering capabilities.
+
+### Puppeteer
+- **Pros:**
+  - Full support for dynamic content, advanced JavaScript, and modern web standards.
+  - Highly customizable headers, footers, and PDF options.
+  - Pixel-perfect rendering accuracy.
+
+- **Cons:**
+  - Consumes more CPU and memory.
+  - Slower startup time due to launching a full Chrome/Chromium instance.
+
+## When to Use Each
+
+### Use **p3x-html-pdf (wkhtmltopdf)**:
+- When your content is **static** or doesn’t rely on modern web technologies.
+- When resource efficiency is a priority (e.g., on resource-constrained servers).
+
+### Use **Puppeteer**:
+- When your content is **dynamic** or relies heavily on JavaScript and CSS.
+- When rendering accuracy, modern web technology support, or customization is critical.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+- **p3x-html-pdf** (wkhtmltopdf) is a better fit for lightweight tasks with simple requirements.
+- **Puppeteer** excels in advanced and dynamic use cases but comes with higher resource costs.
