 ## Features
 
 - **Universal Format Support**: Handle `.env`, `JSON`, `YAML`, and `TOML` seamlessly.
-- **Hierarchical Flattening**: Edit nested data structures (JSON, YAML, TOML) in a flat, searchable list.
+- **Tree View Navigation**: Edit nested data structures (JSON, YAML, TOML) in a beautiful, depth-colored tree view.
+- **Smart Template Comparison**: Automatically discovers `.env.example` vs `.env` relationships and highlights missing or modified keys.
+- **Add Missing Keys**: Instantly pull missing keys and their default values from your template into your active configuration with a single keystroke.
+- **Neovim Integration**: Comes with a built-in Neovim plugin for seamless in-editor configuration management.
 - **Docker Compose Integration**: Automatically generate `docker-compose.override.yml` from `docker-compose.yml`.
-- **Vim-inspired Workflow**: Navigate with `j`/`k`, edit with `i`, and save with `:w`.
+- **Vim-inspired Workflow**: Navigate with `j`/`k`, `gg`/`G`, edit with `i`, search with `/`, and save with `:w`.
-- **Modern UI**: A polished, rounded interface featuring the Catppuccin Mocha palette.
+- **Modern UI**: A polished, rounded interface featuring a semantic Catppuccin Mocha palette.
-- **Highly Configurable**: Customize keybindings and themes via a simple TOML configuration.
+- **Highly Configurable**: Customize keybindings and semantic themes via a simple TOML configuration.
-- **Dynamic Alignment**: Automatically aligns keys and values for perfect vertical readability.
-- **Default Value Visibility**: Keep track of original template values while editing.
-- **Incremental Merging**: Load existing values from an output file to continue where you left off.
