 # box-box
 
-> "Box, box. Box, box." — Every F1 race engineer, ever.
+> "Box, box. Box, box." Every F1 race engineer, ever.
 
-**box-box** is a Formula 1 dashboard in Go with two surfaces:
+**box-box** is an unofficial F1 race-weekend command center: live timing, Race Hub analytics, championship context, paddock briefing feeds, and local historical data in one Go + React app, with a preserved Bubble Tea TUI.
 
-- **Web UI (primary)** — React + TypeScript SPA for Race Hub analytics, local data coverage, and live timing.
-- **TUI (preserved)** — Bubble Tea terminal app with standings, calendar, driver profiles, official live timing, track map, battles, pit window, and replay.
+Live demo: [box-box.amantahiliani.com](https://box-box.amantahiliani.com/)
 
-Historical Web data is **local-first** in a SQLite domain database (ingested from OpenF1). **Live timing** uses the official F1 SignalR feed via the Go server; the React app reads `/api/v1/live/*`, not OpenF1 directly.

-For architecture, phase history, and design rationale, see [documentations/refactor/README.md](documentations/refactor/README.md).
+## What it does
 
-## How it fits together
+- **Command Center**: current race-weekend home with GP identity, live status, schedule, championship leaders, and direct analysis links.
+- **Race Hub**: session workspace for overview, race story, strategy, laps, weather, race control, and dataset coverage.
+- **Live Timing**: official F1 SignalR feed bridged through the Go server to the browser via SSE.
+- **Championship View**: standings, form, teammate context, cumulative points, and a simulator.
+- **Paddock Briefing**: RSS/Atom news ingestion for a local race-weekend briefing surface.
+- **Local-first history**: OpenF1 data ingested into a SQLite domain database for fast historical browsing.
+- **Terminal Mode**: Bubble Tea TUI with standings, calendar, driver profiles, live timing, track map, battles, pit window, and replay.
+
+## Status
+
+Pre-beta and actively developed. The Web UI is the primary surface; the TUI is preserved and still useful for terminal workflows. Live timing depends on F1 broadcasting timing data, so it is only fully active during live sessions.
+
+## Quickstart
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/AmanTahiliani/box-box.git
+cd box-box
+
+npm install                    # Playwright and repo-level test scripts
+npm install --prefix frontend  # Vite + React app
+
+npm run build --prefix frontend
+go run ./cmd/main.go --web
+# http://localhost:8080
+```
+
+For frontend development with a seeded local database:
+
+```bash
+go run ./scripts/seed-e2e-db/main.go --db /tmp/boxbox-dev.db
+BOXBOX_DISABLE_LIVE=1 go run ./cmd/main.go --web --db /tmp/boxbox-dev.db --port 18080
+
+BOXBOX_API_PORT=18080 npm run dev --prefix frontend
+# http://localhost:5173
