+# Description
+
+That usermod implements support of simple hand gestures with VL53L0X sensor: on/off and brightness correction.
+It can be useful for kitchen strips to avoid any touches.
+ - on/off - just swipe a hand below your sensor ("shortPressAction" is called and can be customized through WLED macros)
+ - brightness correction - keep your hand below sensor for 1 second to switch to "brightness" mode.
+                           Configure brightness by changing distance to the sensor (see parameters below for customization).
+                           "macroLongPress" is also called here.
+
+## Installation 
+
+1. Attach VL53L0X sensor to i2c pins according to default pins for your board.
+2. Add `-D USERMOD_VL53L0X_GESTURES` to your build flags at platformio.ini (plaformio_override.ini) for needed environment.
+In my case, for example: `build_flags = ${common.build_flags_esp8266} -D RLYPIN=12 -D USERMOD_VL53L0X_GESTURES`
+3. Add "pololu/VL53L0X" dependency below to `lib_deps` like this:
+```ini
+lib_deps = ${env.lib_deps}
+      pololu/VL53L0X @ ^1.3.0
+```
+
+My entire `platformio_override.ini` for example (for nodemcu board):
+```ini
+[platformio]
+default_envs = nodemcu
+
+[env:nodemcu]
+board = nodemcu
+platform = ${common.platform_wled_default}
+platform_packages = ${common.platform_packages}
+board_build.ldscript = ${common.ldscript_4m1m}
+build_unflags = ${common.build_unflags}
+build_flags = ${common.build_flags_esp8266} -D RLYPIN=12 -D USERMOD_VL53L0X_GESTURES
+lib_deps = ${env.lib_deps}
+  pololu/VL53L0X @ ^1.3.0
+```
