Notes

• Phexor is currently in the Alpha stage due to a remake.
  • Reasons for the remake:
    The old version was not user-friendly enough due to its design.
• Please understand that I have limited time to work on Phexor because of school and my search for a mini job, but I try to work on it as much as I can.
• If you got any ideas how Phexor can be made more accesable or improved in general, let us know via issues
