+webhook is a lightweight configurable tool written in Go, that allows you to
+easily create HTTP endpoints (hooks) on your server, which you can use to
+execute configured commands. You can also pass data from the HTTP request
+(such as headers, payload or query variables) to your commands. webhook also
+allows you to specify rules which have to be satisfied in order for the hook
+to be triggered.
+
+For example, if you're using Github or Bitbucket, you can use webhook to set
+up a hook that runs a redeploy script for your project on your staging server,
+whenever you push changes to the master branch of your project.
+
+If you use Mattermost or Slack, you can set up an "Outgoing webhook
+integration" or "Slash command" to run various commands on your server, which
+can then report back directly to you or your channels using the "Incoming
+webhook integrations", or the appropriate response body.
+
+webhook aims to do nothing more than it should do, and that is:
+1. receive the request,
+2. parse the headers, payload and query variables,
+3. check if the specified rules for the hook are satisfied,
+4. and finally, pass the specified arguments to the specified command via
+   command line arguments or via environment variables.
+
+Everything else is the responsibility of the command's author.
