Motivation

  • Replace the original verbose, HTML-heavy README with a concise, maintainable project overview tailored to Rails+React development.
  • Provide clearer developer onboarding steps and a single source of truth for local development, testing, and deployment notes.
  • Surface key architecture and tech-stack details so contributors can quickly understand API surface and repo layout.

Description

  • Rewrote README.md to remove HTML header/badges and the long feature table and replaced it with structured sections including Overview, Architecture, Tech Stack, API, Repository Layout, Local Development, Testing & Code Quality, Deployment, and Troubleshooting.
  • Added concrete setup and run commands such as bundle install, yarn install, bin/rails db:prepare, bin/dev, and docker build -t taskfy:latest . for common workflows.
  • Documented backend/frontend responsibilities, API endpoints for resources like /tasks, /users, and /session, and tooling commands for linting and security checks like bin/rubocop and bin/brakeman.
  • Included a concise repo layout snippet and notes for port conflicts, dependency fixes, and database reset commands like bin/rails db:drop db:create db:migrate.

Testing

  • No automated tests were executed as part of this documentation-only change.

P2 Badge Avoid recommending broken bin/setup bootstrap path

The new README suggests bin/setup as an alternative onboarding flow, but in this repository bin/setup calls system!("bin/yarn") and there is no bin/yarn executable checked in, so fresh contributors following this path will hit a hard setup failure before the app can run. Either remove this recommendation or update it to a command sequence that is actually runnable in the current repo state.
