+## Why I created this project
+
+I needed to streamline my ChatGPT workflow, but I encountered several limitations with existing tools available in 
+the market. They were either overly expensive, web-based (making me hesitant to trust them with my API key), or lacking 
+the specific features I required. As a personal weekend challenge, I embarked on creating this project to learn SwiftUI 
+and see how far I could go. The code was written with significant guidance and assistance from ChatGPT itself.
