-K9s is a CLI for Kubernetes. It provides a bit more information about your cluster
-than *kubectl* while allowing to perform primordial Kubernetes commands with ease.
+K9s is written in GO and provides a graphical terminal UI to interact with your
+Kubernetes clusters. The aim of this project is to make it easier to navigate,
+observe and manage your clusters. The CLI continually watches Kubernetes
+resources for changes and offers subsequent commands to interact with the
+observed resource.
