 # @betterstart/cli
 
-Scaffold a full-featured, code-generated CMS into any Next.js 16 application. The CMS lives in a self-contained `cms/` directory — you own the code, eject anytime.
+> **Warning:** This project is a work in progress. Expect bugs, breaking changes, and incomplete features.
 
-## Quick Start
+Drop a production-ready CMS into any Next.js 16 app with one command. You get a full admin panel — auth, CRUD, rich text editing, file uploads, forms — living in a self-contained `cms/` directory. You own the code. No vendor lock-in.
 
 ```bash
-npx @betterstart/cli init my-app --preset blog
+npx @betterstart/cli init
 ```
 
-This will:
+## What you get
 
-1. Create a new Next.js app (or detect your existing project)
-2. Scaffold the CMS into `cms/` with auth, database, admin UI, and API routes
-3. Install all dependencies
-4. Generate blog schemas (posts + categories) with full CRUD
+- **Admin panel** with sidebar navigation, search, filters, bulk actions, and CSV export
+- **Authentication** via Better Auth (email/password, role-based: admin, editor, member)
+- **22 field types** including rich text (TipTap), markdown (CodeMirror + Shiki), image/video uploads, relationships, tabs, groups, lists, and curriculum builder
+- **Public forms** with multi-step support, email notifications, Mailchimp integration, and a submissions admin
+- **Three schema types** — entities (full CRUD), singles (settings pages), and forms (public-facing with submission tracking)
+- **Caching** with Next.js 16 `'use cache'` directive, `cacheLife`, `cacheTag`, and `updateTag`
 
 ## Commands
 
 ### `betterstart init [name]`
 
-Scaffold CMS into a new or existing Next.js project.
+Scaffold the CMS into a new or existing Next.js project.
 
 ```bash
-betterstart init                    # Existing project
-betterstart init my-app             # Fresh project
-betterstart init --preset blank     # No starter content
-betterstart init --preset blog      # Blog (default)
-betterstart init --preset full      # Blog + navigation + contact form
+betterstart init                       # Interactive setup in current project
+betterstart init my-app                # Create new Next.js app + CMS
+betterstart init --preset blog -y      # Non-interactive with blog preset
 ```
 
+**Presets:**
+
+| Preset | What it includes |
+|--------|-----------------|
+| `blank` | Settings singleton only |
+| `blog` | Settings + Categories + Posts (with many-to-many) |
+| `full` | Blog + Navigation + Contact form |
+
+Init runs 12 scaffolders in sequence: base directories, tsconfig aliases, Tailwind tokens, env vars, database, auth, UI components (206 files), layouts, API routes, linter config, dependency installation (~130 packages), and preset generation.
+
 ### `betterstart generate <schema>`
 
-Generate entity or form CRUD from a JSON schema in `cms/schemas/`.
+Generate everything from a JSON schema file in `cms/schemas/`.
 
 ```bash
-betterstart generate posts          # Entity CRUD
-betterstart generate contact        # Form (auto-detected)
-betterstart generate posts --force  # Overwrite existing files
-betterstart generate posts --skip-migration  # Skip db:push
+betterstart generate posts                # Entity CRUD (12 files)
+betterstart generate settings             # Single-type page (7 files)
+betterstart generate contact              # Form + admin (14 files)
+betterstart generate posts --force        # Overwrite existing files
+betterstart generate posts --skip-migration  # Skip drizzle-kit push
 ```
 
+Schema type is auto-detected: files in `schemas/forms/` or with `submitButtonText`/`steps` are forms, `type: "single"` is a single, everything else is an entity.
+
 ### `betterstart remove <schema>`
 
-Remove all generated files for an entity or form.
+Remove all generated files for a schema and clean up `schema.ts` + `navigation.ts`.

+## Configuration
+
+Create `cms.config.ts` in your project root (generated by `init`):
+
+```typescript
+import { defineConfig } from '@betterstart/cli'
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  database: {
+    provider: 'neon',
+  },
+  features: {
+    email: true,
+  },
+})
+```
+
+All generated code uses `@cms/*` path aliases:
+
+```typescript
+import { db } from '@cms/db'
+import { posts } from '@cms/db/schema'
+import { getPosts } from '@cms/actions/posts'
+```
