-Me trying to make an IDE
\ No newline at end of file
+Concorde is a currently WIP IDE made by BodgeMaster and Shwoomple.
+
+Planned features:
+- can operate as a single window or components of the IDE (like the console) can be undocked and run in separate windows to allow for better use of multiple monitors
+- all GUI elements have to be controlled in a toolkit independent way so that `gui_handler.py` can be yoinked and replaced with a different implementation without changing any other code
+- only barebones internals, relying on external tools to provide most of the traditional IDE features
+    - project management
+        - preferably rely on standard tools to do that and just provide a nice way of interacting with them in the IDE
+    - code editor
+        - integration for syntax checking, warnings, etc. (if provided by external tool)
+        - integration for syntax highlighting (if provided by external tool)
+        - integration for project-wide renaming of variables (if provided by external tool)
+    - console / terminal
+    - file explorer / project explorer
+- some sort of extension API to both unify the integration of external tools and add functionality to the IDE (low priority goal)
