-work in progress hypervisor for learning purposes but also hoping to build something around it in the future.
+A work-in-progress hypervisor for learning purposes, featuring a flexible VMX configuration system and comprehensive logging capabilities.
 
-- apic virtualisation is very initial and only includes TPR shadowing. It technically works for a very short period but then the cpu hard faults. Ive tried to reference freebsd and linux but i cant seem to get it consistently working and the manual is fairly vague when it comes to TPR shadowing.
-- unconditional io exiting is buggy and will crash u
+## Features
 
-## windows versions
+### VMX Configuration System
+- Flexible configuration management for Virtual Machine Extensions (VMX)
+- Customizable CPU features including preemption timer and unrestricted mode
+- Advanced memory management with configurable stack sizes and huge page support
+- Performance optimization options for TLB flush and caching
+- Comprehensive debug options with CR/DR access monitoring
+- Security features including NX, SMAP, and SMEP enforcement
+- I/O control with configurable bitmap support
 
-ive only tested it on win10 22h2, so use are ur own risk
+### Logging and Monitoring
+- Multi-level logging system with configurable categories
+- Performance monitoring capabilities
+- Debug exception handling
+- Preemption timer support with customizable intervals
 
-## Sources:
+### Current Limitations
+- APIC virtualization is preliminary (only TPR shadowing)
+- Unconditional I/O exiting needs stability improvements
