 A CLI tool for scaffolding a full-stack web application with your choice of frontend and backend technologies. The generated projects use `npm ci` and pinned Python dependencies to ensure fully deterministic and reproducible installations.
 
 ## Prerequisites
 
 Before running the CLI or the scaffolded applications, ensure you have the following installed on your system:
+
 - **Node.js**: v20 or newer
 - **npm**: v10 or newer
-- **Python**: v3.11 or newer
+- **Python**: v3.11 or newer _(only required for FastAPI / Flask backends)_
+- **[.NET 9 SDK](https://aka.ms/dotnet/download)** _(only required for the .NET backend — the CLI will offer to install it automatically on macOS/Linux if not found)_

 - **Unified Scripts**: `start.sh`, `test.sh`, and `lint.sh` available out of the box to manage both frontend and backend seamlessly.

-- **Developer Experience**: Includes `.vscode/extensions.json` recommending the necessary linters and formatters, and an `AGENTS.md` file providing behavioral guidelines for AI agents (based on [andrej-karpathy-skills](https://github.com/forrestchang/andrej-karpathy-skills)). It is AI development friendly, including an extensive set of agent skills in `.agents/skills` sourced from [claude-skills](https://github.com/alirezarezvani/claude-skills).
