+
+**GpgFrontend** is not just another [OpenPGP](https://www.openpgp.org/)
+tool—it’s your fast, portable, and truly independent encryption companion.
+Whether you’re just starting out or already a privacy expert, GpgFrontend
+empowers you with secure communication—no clutter, no bloat, total control.
+
+## Why GpgFrontend?
+
+GpgFrontend is more than a simple “button-and-command” wrapper around GnuPG.
+Every detail is designed for real-world usability, security, and portability:
+
+- **Effortless Encryption & Signing:** Quickly encrypt, decrypt, and sign texts,
+  files, and emails in one click.
+- **Multiple Independent Key Databases:** Manage different keys and identities
+  for various projects or teams—keep everything organized and secure.
+- **Truly Portable:** Run GpgFrontend from a USB drive and carry your keys and
+  settings easily between devices.
+- **Advanced Yet Accessible:** Supports modern algorithms (RSA, EdDSA, ECDSA,
+  ECDH, etc.), advanced features like KeyPackage, public key sync,
+  backup/restore, and powerful security options—all while remaining easy for
+  beginners.
+- **Error Prevention:** Built-in checks, clear workflows, and guidance help you
+  avoid accidental mistakes.
+- **Lightweight & Efficient:** No browser engines, no heavy frameworks. Minimal
+  memory usage, instant startup, and zero background bloat.
+- **Consistent Experience Everywhere:** Native support for Windows, macOS,
+  Linux, and buildable on FreeBSD—always the same look and feel.
+
+> Give GpgFrontend a ⭐ on [GitHub](https://github.com/saturneric/GpgFrontend).
+> Your support helps our community grow and brings strong privacy to everyone.
+

+## Mission and Origins
+
+GpgFrontend draws its inspiration and core philosophy from the stable, portable,
+and cross-platform [gpg4usb](https://www.gpg4usb.org/) project. Inheriting the
+spirit of true portability and platform independence, GpgFrontend builds on this
+foundation to deliver even more advanced features, modern algorithm support, and
+an intuitive user experience. Our mission is to make powerful OpenPGP encryption
+truly accessible—simple, robust, and convenient for everyone, on any major
+operating system.
+
+## Open Source, Always
+
+As a community-driven, open-source project, GpgFrontend is entirely free and
+transparent, welcoming contributions, feedback, and ideas from users worldwide.
+
+## User-Driven Development
+
+What truly sets GpgFrontend apart is its commitment to users. From day one,
+nearly every piece of user feedback—whether about interface design, new
+features, or compatibility—has been addressed in the very next release. Your
+ideas and needs directly shape the roadmap. GpgFrontend evolves with you, not
+just for you.
+
+## Your Privacy First
+
+GpgFrontend is built with privacy as its top priority—designed for true offline
+security. No telemetry, no cloud syncing, and no outside dependencies. All
+encryption, decryption, and signing are performed **locally** on your device, so
+your secrets never leave your machine.
+
+Whether you’re online or offline, your data remains 100% under your control.  
+Join us in making encryption simple, robust, and truly private—because your
+privacy is non-negotiable.
