Give some details about what this binding is meant for - a protocol, system, specific device.
If possible, provide some resources like pictures, a YouTube video, etc. to give an impression of what can be done with this binding. You can place such resources into a doc
folder next to this README.md.
Please describe the different supported things / devices within this section.
Which different types are supported, which models were tested etc.?

Describe the available auto-discovery features here. Mention for what it works and what needs to be kept in mind when using it.
If your binding requires or supports general configuration settings, please create a folder cfg
and place the configuration file <bindingId>.cfg
inside it. In this section, you should link to this file and provide some information about the options. The file could e.g. look like:

#
# Default secret key for the pairing of the Philips Hue Bridge.
# It has to be between 10-40 (alphanumeric) characters
# This may be changed by the user for security reasons.
