+# GoldDiff
+
+_GoldDiff_ is a neat little tool that uses Riot Game's official [Client API](https://developer.riotgames.com/docs/lol#league-client-api) to display and compare the combined item costs of every player - much like the well known LCS gold comparison.
+

+
+<br>
+
+# How it works
+
+During your games, your League Client publishes various live stats of what is happening ingame. <br>
+In general, these are pretty much the exact same data as you can see in your ingame scoreboard - kills, deaths, items etc. <br>
+_GoldDiff_ reads these data periodically and displays them in a user friendly way that allows you to gain a quick overview of your game's current state. <br>
+
+## __Important__
+
+_GoldDiff_ __does not__ use any other data besides those that Riot Games officially allows! <br>
+Especially, there is 
+* __no__ memory inspection
+* __no__ network traffic reading
+* __no__ process manipulation
+
+Thus, _GoldDiff_ __does not__ give you any unfair advantage over your opponent and, therefore, is perfectly safe for you to use - _GoldDiff_ __is not__ a Hack!
