+
+
+## How it works
+
+The tool is based on the fabulous [Phantomas](https://github.com/macbre/phantomas) by Maciej Brencz, that loads a page and collects many web performance metrics.
+I rewrote some modules to deeper analyse Javascript interactions with the DOM (especially with jQuery).
+And then it is wrapped inside a small server (inspired by my favorite tool: [WebPageTest](http://www.webpagetest.org/)).
+
+**There are so many things left to do, your help would be greatly appreciated! Please report bugs, ask for evolutions and come code with me.**
