 ## Project Overview
 
-Multiway is a Kubernetes [Gateway API](https://gateway-api.sigs.k8s.io/) implementation written in Rust (2024 edition). It implements a split-architecture controller: a **control plane** that reconciles Gateway API resources and a **data plane** (built on [Pingora](https://github.com/cloudflare/pingora)) that proxies HTTP traffic. The controller name is `io.multiway/gateway-controller`.
