+## CLI
+The plugin can also be used via the linux command line. This can be particularly useful if you need to embed the plugin into an automation pipeline or environment.
+The plugin can be called with the command below:
+```
+python3 -m plugins.cli -p /myProject/myBoard.kicad_pcb
+```
+
+All the options from the GUI are also available via the cli interface:
+```
+python3 -m plugins.cli -h

+## Installation
+
+### Official Installation
+Fabrication Toolkit is distributed with the official releases of KiCad 6+. Open the "Plugin and Content Manager" from the KiCad main menu and install the "<ins>Fabrication Toolkit</ins>" plugin from the selection list.
+
+<img src="https://github.com/bennymeg/JLC-Plugin-for-KiCad/blob/master/assets/manager.png?raw=true" height=275>
+
+### Manual installation
+Download the [latest release](https://github.com/bennymeg/JLC-Plugin-for-KiCad/releases) ZIP file. Open the "Plugin and Content Manager" from the KiCads main window and install the ZIP file via "Install from File".
+
+## Usage

+#### Primary Fields*:
+| 'FT Position Offset' |
+| --- |
+
+_The fields will be queried in the order denoted above._
+
+#### Fallback Fields*:
+| 'Position Offset' | 'PosOffset' |
+| --- | --- |
+
+_The fields will be queried in the order denoted above._
+
+### ⑤ Override Component Origin
+The Fabrication Toolkit reports the position of each component based on an automatically selected point of reference. This default behavior can be overridden by adding an 'FT Origin'* field to the component.
+
+#### Primary Fields*:
+| 'FT Origin' |
+| --- |
+
+_The fields will be queried in the order denoted above._
+
+#### Fallback Fields*:
+| 'Origin' |
+| --- |
+
+The **Origin** field supports the following values:
+
+- `Anchor` - Uses the footprint's anchor point, which can be modified in KiCad's footprint editor.
+- `Center` - Uses the center of the bounding box formed by the footprint's pads.
+
+### ⑥ Override Component Layer
+Some footprints may have their components defined on the opposite layer to there actual footprints. In these instances you can override mount side by adding an 'FT Layer Override'* field to the component.
+
+The **Layer Override** field supports the following values:
+- `top`, `t` - Override footprint layer to the top.
+- `bottom`, `b` - Override footprint layer to the bottom.
+
+#### Primary Fields*:
+| 'FT Layer Override' |
+| --- |
+
+_The fields will be queried in the order denoted above._
+
+#### Fallback Fields*:
+| 'Layer Override' | 'LayerOverride' |
+| --- | --- |
+
+_The fields will be queried in the order denoted above._
+
+
+## CLI
+The plugin can also be used via the linux command line. This can be particularly useful if you need to embed the plugin into an automation pipeline or environment.
+The plugin can be called with the command below:
+```
+python3 -m plugins.cli -p /myProject/myBoard.kicad_pcb
+```
+
+All the options from the GUI are also available via the cli interface:
+```
+python3 -m plugins.cli -h
+
+usage: Fabrication Toolkit [-h] --path PATH [--additionalLayers LAYERS] [--user1VCut] [--user2AltVCut]
+                           [--autoTranslate] [--autoFill] [--excludeDNP] [--allActiveLayers] [--archiveName NAME]
+                           [--openBrowser] [--noBackup]
+
+Generates JLCPCB production files from a KiCAD board file
+
+options:
+  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
+  --path PATH, -p PATH  Path to KiCAD board file
+  --additionalLayers LAYERS, -aL LAYERS
+                        Additional layers(comma-separated)
+  --user1VCut, -u1      Set User.1 as V-Cut layer
+  --user2AltVCut, -u2   Use User.2 for alternative Edge-Cut layer
+  --autoTranslate, -t   Apply automatic position/rotation translations
+  --autoFill, -f        Apply automatic fill for all zones
+  --excludeDNP, -e      Exclude DNP components from BOM
+  --allActiveLayers, -aaL
+                        Export all active layers instead of only commonly used ones
+  --archiveName NAME, -aN NAME
+                        Name of the generated archives
+  --openBrowser, -b     Open web browser with directory file overview after generation
+  --noBackup, -nB       Do not create a backup of the project before generation
