 # OpenCHAMI Configurator
 
-The `configurator` (portmanteau of config + generator) is a tool that fetchs data from an instance of [SMD](https://github.com/OpenCHAMI/smd) to generate commonly used config files. The tool is also capable of some templating using the Jinja 2 syntax with generator plugins.
+The `configurator` (portmanteau of config + generator) is an extensible tool that fetchs data from an instance of [SMD](https://github.com/OpenCHAMI/smd) to generate commonly used config files based on Jinja 2 template files. The tool and generator plugins are written in Go and plugins can be written by following the ["Creating Generator Plugins"](#creating-generator-plugins) section of this README.

 This will generate a new `dnsmasq` config file based on the Jinja 2 template specified in the config file for "dnsmasq". The `--target` flag specifies the type of config file to generate by its name (see the [`Creating Generator Plugins`](#creating-generator-plugins) section for details). The `configurator` tool requires a valid access token when making requests to an instance of SMD that has protected routes.
