+## Purpose
+
+The purpose of this project is to have a single configuration for both `commitlint` and `commitizen` -- while prompting the user for each answer.
+
+## Similar Projects
+
+Both of these wonderful projects are use the `commitlint` config as well.
+
+- [@commitlint/prompt](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@commitlint/prompt)
+- [@commitlint/prompt-cli](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@commitlint/prompt-cli)
+
+Commitiquette differs by using simple prompts, list selects whenever possible, for answers -- much like the `cz-conventional-changelog` commitizen plugin.
+
+## Fully Configurable
+
+Commitiquitte is fully configurable using the `commitlint` configuration.
+
+Examples
+
+### Disable Prompting for scope
+
+```javascript
+module.exports = {
+  extends: ['@commitlint/config-conventional'],
+  rules: {
+    'scope-empty': [2, 'always']
+  }
+};
+```
+
+### List select for scope
+
+```javascript
+module.exports = {
+  extends: ['@commitlint/config-conventional'],
+  rules: {
+    'scope-enum': [2, 'always', ['docs', 'core', 'lib', 'misc', 'etc']]
+  }
+};
+```
+
+## Filtering and Validation
+
+Commitiquette will validate against all but the deprecated `commitlint` rules.
+
+> **NOTE:** This is not a replacement for `commitlint`. Commitlint should still validate the message before each commit.
+
+Where possible, commitlint rules will be used to filter messages.
+
+Validation is run at Level Error (2) -- where filtering will apply at if the rule is set to Warn (1) or Error (2.)
