+# About
+
+Cedar-Django is a fork of Closedverse with custom features added to it.
+
+### Theme changing
+Just like in Indigo, you can change the color of your theme. While this is only visible to each user specifically, a global theme can be set in Settings.py.
+
+### Overhauled admin panel
+The admin panel has been changed completely. You can now do a lot more things in a much easier way. The intention behind this redesign is to reduce the need to use the normal Django admin panel.
+
+### Community creation
+You can have your users make communities. Each user by default can make one community. User communities can be changed by the owner of said community.
+
+### Password resetting within the settings page
+**This should've been a thing since day one.** Instead of being forced to reset your password through your email, you can now change it via settings.
+
+### Admins can change the sidebar on the front of the page.
+There are two types: `welcomemsgs` and `MOTDs`
+
+`welcomemsgs` are visible on the front page when you aren't signed in.
+
+`MOTDs` are visible when signed in.
+
+## Other features include:
+- Mods can warn users.
+- Better audit logging system.
+- Purging is much easier now.
+- You can fucking ban people now without the Django panel.
+- Each and every ban is an IP ban automatically.
+- A page where every user can view collected data tied to their account.
+
+Can you rewrite this?
