> Readme Standard Style
This repo is for standardizing how READMEs should look. The goal is to have:
- A well defined specification that other people could look to;
- An example README that can be used for comparison (this README.md is the example);
- A linter that can be used to look at errors in a given Readme;
- A generator that can be used to quickly scaffold out new READMEs.

### Generator
To use the generator, look at [generator-standard-readme](https://github.com/RichardLitt/generator-standard-readme).
### Badge
If your README is compliant with Standard-Readme and you're on GitHub, it would be great if you could add the badge. This allows people to link back to this Spec, and helps adoption of the README. The badge is **not required**.
