Congrats on making it to a public release, that stuff is hard! I was typing up a few questions, especially on comparisons with ngSkinTools, but as I did I came across the answers in your README already. :D My one suggestion would be to include a gif near the top of your README, using your tool in the way it was intended on some example asset. That can help communicate the idea more quickly and helps it stand out amongst the vast ocean of plain-text READMEs on GitHub already. Even taking one of those screenshots in the middle and putting it front and center would help.
