 ## Synopsis
 
-HyperCache is a **thread-safe** **high-performance** cache implementation in `Go` that supports multiple backends with optional size limit, expiration and eviction of items supporting custom algorithms alongside the defaults. It can be used as a standalone cache or as a cache middleware for a service. It can implement a [service interface](./service.go) to intercept and decorate the cache methods with middleware (default or custom).
-It is optimized for performance and flexibility allowing to specify the expiration and eviction intervals, provide and register new eviction algorithms, stats collectors, middleware(s).

+It is optimized for performance and flexibility, allowing to specify the expiration and eviction intervals, and providing and registering new eviction algorithms, stats collectors, and middleware(s).
 It ships with a default [historigram stats collector](./stats/statscollector.go) and several eviction algorithms, but you can develop and register your own as long as it implements the [Eviction Algorithm interface](./eviction/eviction.go).:
