 # Queue-based HTTP Server Request Handler
 
-[![PHPStan](https://github.com/opencultureconsulting/psr-15/actions/workflows/phpstan.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/opencultureconsulting/psr-15/actions/workflows/phpstan.yml)
+***An implementation of [PSR-15: HTTP Server Request Handlers](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-15/).***
+
+The PHP Standard Recommendation PSR-15 defines interfaces for server request handlers and proposes a queue-based implementation using different middlewares for processing requests and preparing responses. This package follows those guidelines and provides a [HTTP server request handler](src/QueueRequestHandler.php) implementation using a [middleware queue](src/MiddlewareQueue.php). It also contains an [abstract class for middlewares](src/AbstractMiddleware.php) to ease the process of writing your own middleware, but you can just as well use any middleware that implements `Psr\Http\Server\MiddlewareInterface` specified by PSR-15 (e.g. from the awesome [PSR-15 HTTP Middlewares](https://github.com/middlewares) project).
+
+All components of this package follow the highest coding standards of [PHPStan](https://phpstan.org/) and [Psalm](https://psalm.dev/), and comply to [PSR-12](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-12/) code style guidelines to make sure they can be combined and easily re-used in other projects.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+The intended and recommended way of re-using this package is via [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/). The following command will get you the latest version:
+
+    composer require opencultureconsulting/psr15
