+# Creating a New Provider
+
+To add a new provider to the multi1 application, follow these steps:
+
+1. Create a new file in the `app/handlers/` directory named `your_provider_handler.py`.
+
+2. Copy the contents of the `skeleton_provider.py` file into your new handler file.
+
+3. Rename the class to match your provider (e.g., `YourProviderHandler`).
+
+4. Implement the `__init__`, `_make_request`, and `_process_response` methods according to your provider's API requirements.
+
+5. Import your new handler in `app/handlers/__init__.py`.
+
+6. Update the `get_api_handler` function in `app/main.py` to include your new provider.
+
+7. Add the necessary configuration options in `app/config_menu.py`.
+
+8. Update the `README.md` file to include information about the new provider.
+
+Remember to handle API keys, rate limiting, and error responses appropriately for your provider.
