+- **Copy** — rewrite hero, feature, marketing, and comparison text for the actual

 Pylon serves the API, auth, sync, WebSocket, SSE, and native React 19 SSR from one Rust process on one port. Treat this app as production infrastructure: it supports real auth, SQLite or Postgres, row-level policies, jobs, search, and one-command deploys. Declare entities, policies, and server functions in TypeScript; the binary handles the runtime. Read the full API reference at https://docs.pylonsync.com/llms-full.txt before guessing an API name.
 
+## First: replace the placeholders
+
+This template ships with placeholder branding, copy, and demo data — the example
+brand **Acme**, `example.com` links, lorem-style text, sample records, and (in the
+marketing templates) fake "Acme vs …" comparisons. Before building features, do
+one pass to make it the real product:
+
+- **Brand** — replace every "Acme", its logo, the `example.com` domain, the support
+  email, and social links with the real name. Find them: `grep -riE "acme|example\.com" .`
+- **Copy** — rewrite hero, feature, marketing, and comparison text for the actual
+  product. Ship no lorem and no "Acme".
+- **Demo data** — replace sample/seed records with the real domain's, or remove them.
+
+The manifest name (`buildManifest({ name })`) is already the project name — the
+placeholders live in the CONTENT. A scaffold that still says "Acme" isn't done; make
+this pass before the user has to ask.
