 ## Features
 
-- Local HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS server
-- GeoIP rule support
-- Supports Vmess, Shadowsocks, Snell and SOCKS5 protocol
-- Supports Netfilter TCP redirecting
-- Comprehensive HTTP API
+- Local HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS server with/without authentication
+- VMess, Shadowsocks, Trojan (experimental), Snell protocol support for remote connections. UDP is supported.
+- Built-in DNS server that aims to minimize DNS pollution attacks, supports DoH/DoT upstream. Fake IP is also supported.
+- Rules based off domains, GEOIP, IP CIDR or ports to forward packets to different nodes
+- Remote groups allow users to implement powerful rules. Supports automatic fallback, load balancing or auto select node based off latency
+- Remote providers, allowing users to get node lists remotely instead of hardcoding in config
+- Netfilter TCP redirecting. You can deploy Clash on your Internet gateway with `iptables`.
+- Comprehensive HTTP API controller
