 # jsPasswordChecker
-Check Passwords for certain criteria 
+This is a little tool I wrote for a friend of mine to determine if certain password criteria are met.
+
+## How to Use
+
+Just include the file (jsPasswordChecker.js) to your project and then:
+```javascript
+var checker = new PasswordChecker({
+  // add criteria here
+});
+checker.check(password);
+```
+
+Simple as that.
+
+## Criteria Object
+
+In the current version the following criteria can be set:
+
+- minLength
+- maxLength
+- containsNumbers
+- containsLowerCaseCharacters
+- containsUpperCaseCharacters
+- containsWhiteSpaces
+- containsSpecialCharacters
+- dictionary
+- maxCharacterRepetition
