 ### pytest-embedded-nuttx
 
-Pytest embedded service for NuttX project. alongside Espressif devices.
+Pytest embedded service for the NuttX project, compatible with Espressif devices.
 
-Using the 'nuttx' service alongside 'serial' allows writing and reading from
-the serial port, taking the NuttShell into consideration when running programs
-and even getting return codes.
+Using the 'nuttx' service alongside 'serial' enables reading from and writing to the serial port, taking NuttShell into account when running programs and retrieving return codes.
 
-While using pytest-embedded-nuttx allows you to communicate with serial
-devices and run simple tests, enabling the 'esp' service  adds extra capabilities for
-Espressif devices, such as flashing and device rebooting.
+The `nuttx` service provides basic serial communication and testing. Adding the 'esp' service enables further capabilities for Espressif devices, including flashing and device rebooting.
 
-Extra Functionalities:
+Additional Features:
 
-- `app`: Explore the NuttX binary directory and identify firmware and bootloader files.
-- `serial`: Parse the binary information and flash the board. Requires 'esp' service.
-- `dut`:  Send commands to device through serial port. Requires 'serial' service or 'esp' for Espressif devices.
+- `app`: Scans the NuttX binary directory to locate firmware and bootloader files.
