+VALID=true
+COUNT=1
+while [ $VALID ]
+do
+ echo $COUNT
+ if [ $COUNT -eq 5 ];
+ then
+ break
+ fi
+ ((COUNT++))
+done
+```
+
+**_After:_**
+
+```lua
+local valid = true
+local count = 1
+while valid do
+ print(count)
+ if count == 5 then
+ break
+ end
+ count += 1
+end
+```
+
+
+
+## ⚙️ Installation
+
+### Using [Aftman](https://github.com/lpghatguy/aftman)
+
+The preferred way of installing Lune.
+
+This will add `lune` to an `aftman.toml` file in the
+current directory, or create one if it does not exist.
+
+```sh
+$ aftman add filiptibell/lune
+```
+
+### From [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/filiptibell/lune/releases)
+
+You can also download pre-built binaries for most
+systems directly from the linked GitHub Releases page.
+
+## ✏️ Writing Lune Scripts
+
+First things first, check out the examples of how to write a script in the [.lune](.lune) folder!
+Lune has many useful built-in globals and APIs to use to interact with your system, and can do things
+such as read/write files, run external programs, serialize & deserialize json, and much more.
+
+## 🏃 Running Lune Scripts
+
+When you've written a script with either a `.lua` or `.luau` extension, you can run it:
+
+```sh
+$ lune script-name
+```
+
+This will look for the script `script_name` in a few locations:
+
+- The current directory
+- The folder `lune` in the current directory, if it exists
+- The folder `.lune` in the current directory, if it exists
+
+If you don't want Lune to look in sub-directories you can provide a full
+file path with the file extension included, instead of only the file name.
