+Hi! If you’ve stumbled upon this, please keep in mind that this program is NOT meant to replace your password manager. 
+However, it CAN be used as a more secure method to manage your safely generated passwords.
+
+While not cryptographically foolproof, the passwords generated by this program are relatively safe because they are long 
+and do not include dictionary words that could be susceptible to dictionary attacks. An advantage over writing down your 
+passwords in a book is that you can’t lose this generator. It can easily be accessed from anywhere in the world, as long 
+as there is internet access.
+
+A drawback is that anyone who knows your username, category, and password can replicate your passwords. However, this 
+requires more variables than just your password for your password database. So, use with caution, but it certainly beats 
+using weak passwords.
+
+It can also NOT store passwords because it does not store but generate your passwords.
