+${XANO_BADGE}
+
+A full-stack app on [Xano](https://xano.com). The backend is TypeScript under
+[\`xano/\`](xano/), authored with the [Xano SDK](https://github.com/xano-sdk/sdk). It runs on
+your machine on the **Xano Engine**, and one command deploys it to Xano's cloud. The
+${preset.label} frontend under [\`frontend/\`](frontend/) takes its request paths and types
+from the backend defs, so the two can't drift.
 
 ## Quick start
 
 \`\`\`bash
 ${install?.manager ?? "npm"} install${install?.ignoreWorkspace === true ? " --ignore-workspace" : ""}
-npm run dev          # run the frontend (no backend needed yet)
+npm run xano:deploy   # run the backend on the Xano Engine, on this machine
+npm run dev           # run the frontend, already pointed at it
 \`\`\`
 
-Then author your backend in [\`xano/index.ts\`](xano/index.ts) \u2014 start with the
-walkthrough in [\`xano/EXAMPLE.md\`](xano/EXAMPLE.md).
-
-## Deploy
+No Xano account needed. Then author your backend in [\`xano/index.ts\`](xano/index.ts),
+starting with the walkthrough in [\`xano/EXAMPLE.md\`](xano/EXAMPLE.md), and rerun
+\`npm run xano:deploy\` after each change.
+
+## Run it on your machine
+
+The Xano Engine is Xano running on your machine. \`npm run xano:deploy\` typechecks the
+backend and deploys it to the engine: no sign-in, and no network round-trip.
+It prints the backend URL, a link that opens Xano's visual builder on the engine, and
+points \`npm run dev\` at it through \`.env.local\` (restart the dev server if it was already
+running).
+
+- **It works on a fresh machine with nothing set.** The first run downloads the latest
+  engine once per machine and pins its version in \`package.json\`. Commit that change, so
+  everyone on the project runs the same engine.
+- **It keeps your table rows across redeploys** (\`--keep-data\`). The first run seeds and
+  later runs merge your changes in without re-seeding. Rows survive only in tables and columns that keep
+  their names (a rename drops the old one with its rows), and only while the engine runs. An
+  engine update or restart starts it empty and the next run seeds again.
+  \`npm run xano:deploy -- --reset\` gives a clean, re-seeded slate.
+- **Updates are yours to take.** When a newer engine ships, a deploy offers it and never
+  applies it without a yes. \`npx xanosdk local update\` moves the pin on purpose,
+  and \`npx xanosdk local cache clear\` reclaims the disk space. To try another engine
+  without moving the pin, export \`XANOSDK_ENGINE_OVERRIDE\` with a version (\`v0.1.5\`)
+  or an engine archive path.
+- **The rest of the CLI follows.** After a local deploy, \`npm run xano:test\`,
+  \`npx xanosdk tables\` and \`npx xanosdk status\` reach the engine with no flag.
+  \`npx xanosdk local stop <name>\` shuts it down.
+
+## Deploy to Xano's cloud

+That deploys the backend and the built frontend to a live **ephemeral** environment on
+Xano and prints its URL. Run it again to refresh the same environment; if it expired, a
+fresh one is created and the new URL is called out. \`npx xanosdk status\` says who you
+are signed in as, which workspace you are bound to, and which environment this project
+last deployed to \u2014 its URL, and when it expires \u2014 so you never have to remember the
+environment's name. Your **workspace** is reached through a release (\`deploy --ephemeral --test\`,
+\`release create\`, \`promote\`); see the
+[deploying guide](https://github.com/xano-sdk/sdk/blob/main/guides/deploying.md).
+
+The other scripts:
+
 - \`npm run xano:deploy:frontend\` rebuilds the frontend and republishes it to the
   environment this project last deployed to \u2014 no backend compile or import, so it
-  is the quick loop for UI-only changes. \`publish\` does not reach a local engine, so after
-  a local-engine deploy run it as \`npm run xano:deploy:frontend -- --to ephemeral\`, or
-  have the engine serve a build with \`--static ./frontend/dist\` on the local deploy.
-  \`npx xanosdk publish ./frontend/dist --to workspace\` puts the same build in front of
-  your real workspace instead.
-- \`npm run xano:export\` compiles the backend to \`workspace.json\` (don't commit it).
-- \`npm run xano:deploy\` deploys the backend and the built frontend to a live
-  **ephemeral** environment and prints its URL. Run it again to refresh the same

+  of your real workspace.
