+# Illuscape
+
+> Inkscape configured for Adobe Illustrator migrants.
+
+Illuscape patches Inkscape's config to match Illustrator's keyboard shortcuts,
+workspace layout, scroll/zoom behavior, color palettes, and document templates —
+without modifying Inkscape itself.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/your-org/illuscape
+cd illuscape
+./install.sh
+```
+
+Follow the prompt to select your Illustrator era (CC or CS6), then open Inkscape.
+
+## Uninstall
+
+```bash
+./uninstall.sh
+```
+
+Your original Inkscape config is restored from backup.
