+# Sidecar Connect
+
+Connect your iPad as an external monitor to your Mac automatically. Should work in Headless mode as well, with an HDMI Headless dongle.
+
+I created this little script in order to use my Mac Mini on the go, with my iPad Pro as its monitor. I haven't been able to test it without an external monitor yet.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+The script currently only works in macOS Ventura. When ran for the first time, the script requests permissions for Accessibility features.
+
+## Installation
+
+You can get started by simply downloading the script from the "Packages" section.
+
+To get the script to run automatically, open your `System Settings`, under `General` click `Login Items` and add the script to the `Open at Login` list.
+
+## Known issues
+
+- If you're setting this up to have a Mac Mini running in headless mode with an iPad as a primary display, you should note that the script only runs after login. You would probably need to either login blindly, or then set up the script to run on a user that has automatic login enabled.
+- The app is very likely to break with major macOS updates. I will attempt to distribute a new version whenever the script does break.
+
+## Contributing
+
+Feel free to contribute to the script with issues and PR's. I'll make sure to check them out!
