+// Firefox concurrently sends requests for cached resources to both the
+// local disk cache and the network server. The browser uses whichever
+// result arrives first and cancels the other request. This approach sometimes
+// loads pages faster because the network can be quicker than accessing the cache
+// on a hard drive. When RCWN is enabled, the request might be served from
+// the server even if you have valid entry in the cache. Set to false if your
+// intention is to increase cache usage and reduce network usage.

+install(-betterfox).py
+
+Usage:
+    python install.py
+    
+
+When called without arguments, it will:
+- Backup your current firefox profile
+- Automatically download user.js from the latest Betterfox release compatible with your Firefox version into the profile
+- Apply user-overrides in the same directory 
+
+However, you can check out install.py/betterfox-install.exe --help to customise most behaviours!
+
+Limitations:
+- When using a different repositoy as a source, that repository needs to use the same releases workflow
+- Over time, the get_releases might not list older releases due to limited page size. This can be expanded down the road, though
+
+Building into an exe (on Windows):
+- pipx install pyinstaller  (note: you can try without pipx, but this didn't work for me)
+- Run:
+  - CMD:  `pyinstaller --onefile --name install-betterfox install.py && move %cd%\\dist\\install-betterfox.exe %cd% && del install-betterfox.spec && rmdir /S /Q build && rmdir dist`
+  - BASH: `pyinstaller --onefile --name install-betterfox install.py && && mv dist/install-betterfox.exe . && rm install-betterfox.spec && rm -rf ./build/ && rmdir dist`
+  (Sorry, didn't want to add a .gitignore solely for the install script)
+- Done!
+
+If there's any problems with the script, feel free to mention @Denperidge on GitHub!
