-Background
-----------
-
-This used to be my personal fork of KISS, but I do think
-that it has matured enough to be used by default on Carbs
-Linux. I will still try to make sure to get upstream changes
-to ensure compatibility.

+KISS PACKAGE MANAGER
+--------------------
+
+Package manager for Carbs Linux. Forked from [KISS]. All
+usage information can be obtained from the manual page.
+For changes please refer to the `CHANGELOG.md` file.
+
+[KISS]: https://github.com/kisslinux/kiss
+
+## Fork Notes
+
+There are certain differences between KISS Linux `kiss` and
+Carbs Linux `kiss`. Most importantly, you need a C compiler
+and a C library (musl/bsd libc) to build this implementation
+of it. Rest of the important changes can be found in the CHANGELOG.
+
+This is _mostly_ a shell implementation rather than a pure one.
+
+### Directory Structure
+
+ / -- kiss, README, Makefile, LICENSE, CHANGELOG
+ bin/ -- for C programs.
+ man/ -- for manual pages / documentation.
+ contrib/ -- for Shell scripts that wrap around kiss.
