-:rocket: What's pgModeler?
-------------
+## π Community & Support
-An **open-source, multiplatform database modeler for PostgreSQL**. This project aims to be a reference database design tool when it comes to FOSS in the PostgreSQL ecosystem.
-Its feature-rich interface allows quick data modeling and fast code deployment on a server. It also supports reverse engineering by creating a visual representation of existing databases. Besides, pgModeler can also generate SQL scripts to sync a model and a database through the process called diff.
-This tool is not about modeling only, it also counts with a minimalist but functional database server administration module that allows the execution of any sort of SQL commands, and provides database browsing and data handling in a simple and intuitive UI.

+**Raphael AraΓΊjo e Silva** - The passionate C++ developer behind pgModeler since 2006. Living in Palmas, Brazil, Raphael combines **computer graphics**, **compilers**, and **database systems** knowledge into this masterpiece. His dedication to **clean C++ code** and **Qt framework expertise** shows in every line of the 96.5% C++ codebase.
-Older releases of pgModeler can be found on [Sourceforge.net](http://sourceforge.net/projects/pgmodeler).
+> *"This is pgModeler... this is my dream!"* - Raphael AraΓΊjo e Silva
-:bomb: Known Issues
------------
+---
-* Due to the usage of Qt's raster engine to draw objects, the process of handling objects on the canvas tends to get slower as lots of objects are created causing constant CPU usage. Heavy performance degradation can be noticed when dealing with models with ~500+ tables and/or relationships. There're plans to improve the speed of drawing operations, for large models, in future releases. Changing the relationship connection mode and render smoothness options may help in the performance when handling big database models.
-
-* The diff process still presents false-positive results due to its limitations. Sometimes, there is the need to run the process twice and/or tweaking the options to get the full changes.
+## β οΈ Known Issues & Limitations
-* pgModeler does not fully support the [quoted identifier notation](http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-syntax-lexical.html#SQL-SYNTAX-IDENTIFIERS). The non-printable characters, some special UTF8 characters, some special characters, and upper case letters in the objects' names will automatically trigger the usage of quoted identifier notation. The following characters are considered special in pgModeler's implementation: '_-.@ $:()/<>+*\=~!#%^&|?{}[]`;
+
+Click to view technical limitations
-* pgModeler can't be compiled with Microsoft Visual Studio due to the use of some GCC and clang extensions.
+* **Large models (500+ objects)**: Qt's raster engine may cause performance degradation with extensive models
+* **Diff process**: May present false-positive results requiring multiple runs or option tweaking
+* **Quoted identifiers**: Limited support for PostgreSQL's quoted identifier notation
+* **Microsoft Visual Studio**: Cannot be compiled due to GCC/Clang-specific extensions
+* **macOS file association**: Bundle particularities prevent proper .dbm file association in Finder
+* **Threading edge cases**: Rare crashes during export/import/validation on complex models due to race conditions
-* Compiling the source using '-Wconversion' (disabled by Qt in its defaults) generates a lot of warnings. These warnings are 99% harmless and there are no plans to fix them in a near future.
+
-* pgModeler can sometimes crash during the export, import, validation or diff processes due to some threaded operations that, depending on the size and the arrangement of the model, cause race conditions between threads.
+---
-* Due to the particularities of executing bundles on macOS, the file association does not work correctly on this system. So it's not possible to open a model file by clicking it on Finder.
