+# Arctica Greeter
+
+## Configuration
+
+- The default configuration is stored in dconf under the schema org.ArcticaProject.arctica-greeter.
+- Distributions should set their own defaults using a GLib override.
+
+# Features
+
+- Arctica Greeter is cross-distribution and should work pretty much anywhere.
+- Arctica Greeter uses Ayatana Indicators for the tray icons, so make sure they are available in your distribution, as well.
+- This greeter supports HiDPI.
+- Sessions are validated. If a default/chosen session isn't present on the system, the greeter scans for known sessions in /usr/share/xsessions and replaces the invalid session choice with a valid session.
+- You can take a screenshot by pressing PrintScrn. The screenshot is saved in /var/lib/lightdm/Screenshot.png.
+
+# Credits
+
+- Arctica Greeter started as a fork of Unity Greeter 16.04.2, a greeter developed for Ubuntu by Canonical. Furtheron, various improvements are take from Slick Greeter, the LinuxMint fork of Unity Greeter.
