-## Vision
+**QHTTPX** is a next-generation, concurrency-native HTTP runtime designed to outperform traditional frameworks like Express and Fastify. It is built from the ground up to handle extreme concurrency on low-resource hardware by leveraging a unified async scheduler for requests, streams, and background tasks.
 
-- One engine.  
-- Millions of concurrent connections.  
-- No blocking. No stalls. No wasted CPU.  
-- From 1GB VPS to multi-core servers — same code, linear scale.  
+It is not just a web framework; it is an **Operating System for your API**.
 
 ---

+## 🚀 Why QHTTPX?
 
-## Installation (Preview)
+Most Node.js frameworks rely on the event loop blindly. QHTTPX introduces a **Cooperative Scheduler** and **Request Fusion Engine** to take control.
 
-```bash
-npm install qhttpx
-```
+### ⚡ The "Quantum" Difference
+| Feature | Traditional Frameworks | QHTTPX |
+|---------|------------------------|--------|
+| **Architecture** | Call Stack (Blocking risk) | **Async Scheduler** (Non-blocking) |
+| **Simultaneous Requests** | Handled individually (N executions) | **Request Fusion** (1 execution broadcast to N) |
+| **Rate Limiting** | Middleware (CPU heavy) | **Aegis Engine** (Zero-overhead Token Bucket) |
+| **Routing** | Regex / Linear Scan | **Radix Tree** (O(1) lookup) |
+| **Streaming** | Basic Pipe | **Smart Streams** (Backpressure-aware) |
 
 ---
 
-## Basic Usage
+## ✨ Key Features
 
-```ts
-import { createHttpApp } from "qhttpx";
-
-// Create an app (Express-style)
-// Automatically includes: CORS, Security Headers, Logging, Body Parsing
-const app = createHttpApp();
-
-app.get("/", (ctx) => {
-  ctx.json({ message: "Hello from QHTTPX" });
-});
+### 🛡️ Aegis Protection System
+Built-in DDoS protection and Rate Limiting that runs *before* your business logic.
+- **Token Bucket Algorithm**: Smooth traffic shaping.
+- **Dual-Layer Storage**: Memory (L1) + Redis (L2) ready.
+- **Smart Headers**: Automatic `Retry-After` and `X-RateLimit-*`.
 
-// Cookie & Helper Support
-app.get("/hello", (ctx) => {
-  ctx.setCookie("name", "QHTTPX");
-  ctx.html("<h1>Hello World</h1>");
-});
-
-app.listen(3000, "127.0.0.1").then(({ port }) => {
-  console.log(`Server running at http://localhost:${port}`);
-});
-```
-
-## Features
-
-### 🍪 Built-in Cookie Support
-RFC-compliant cookie parsing and serialization out of the box.
-
-```ts
-app.get('/', (ctx) => {
-  const token = ctx.cookies['token'];
-  ctx.setCookie('visited', 'true', { httpOnly: true, maxAge: 3600 });
-});
-```
-
-### 🛠️ DX Helpers
-Built-in helpers for common tasks:
-- `ctx.json(data, status)`
-- `ctx.html(content, status)`
-- `ctx.send(body, status)`
-- `ctx.redirect(url, status)`
-
-## Advanced Usage
-
-For full control over the runtime configuration:
-
-```ts
-import { QHTTPX } from "qhttpx";
-
-const app = new QHTTPX({
-  workers: "auto",
-  maxConcurrency: 1000,
-  requestTimeoutMs: 2_000,
-  maxMemoryBytes: 512 * 1024 * 1024,
-});
+### ⚛️ Request Fusion (Layer 2 Coalescing)
+The only framework that automatically collapses simultaneous duplicate requests.
+- **Scenario**: 1,000 users request `/api/trending` at the exact same millisecond.
+- **Result**: QHTTPX executes the handler **ONCE** and broadcasts the result to all 1,000 users.
+- **Impact**: Database load drops by 99.9%.
 
+### 🔌 Full-Stack Ecosystem
+Everything you need, built-in but modular.
+- **WebSockets**: Real-time channels with "Rooms" support.
+- **SSE**: Server-Sent Events helper `createSSE()`.
+- **Views**: Server-side rendering (EJS, Pug, etc.).
+- **Static Files**: Range requests (Video streaming), ETag caching.
+- **Multipart**: Native file upload handling.
 
 ---
 
-## Core API
+## 📦 Installation
 
-### Server
-
-```ts
-new QHTTPX(options);
+```bash
+npm install qhttpx
 ```
 
-**Options**
+---
 
-| Option            | Description                                      |
-| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
-| `workers`         | Number of workers or `"auto"`                    |
-| `maxConcurrency`  | Hard limit for in-flight scheduled tasks        |
-| `requestTimeoutMs`| Per-request timeout in milliseconds              |
-| `maxMemoryBytes`  | RSS threshold for returning 503 overload        |
+## ⚡ Quick Start
 
-### Routing
+### 1. The Standard Way
+Clean, explicit, and scalable from day one.
 
-```ts
-app.get(path, handler);
-app.post(path, handler);
-app.put(path, handler);
-app.delete(path, handler);
-```
+```typescript
+// Import the framework (Default Export supported)
+import QHTTPX from "qhttpx";
 
-**Example**
+// Create app (Automatically includes: CORS, Security Headers, Logging, Body Parsing)
+const app = QHTTPX();
 
-```ts
-app.get("/users/:id", ctx => {
-  return ctx.json({ id: ctx.params.id });
+app.get("/", (ctx) => {
+  return ctx.json({ message: "Welcome to QHTTPX" });
 });
-```
-
----
-
-## Middleware
 
-```ts
-app.use(async (ctx, next) => {
-  const start = Date.now();
-  await next();
-  const duration = Date.now() - start;
-  ctx.res.setHeader("x-response-time", `${duration}ms`);
+// Async validation with Zod support
+app.post("/users", async (ctx) => {
+  const body = await ctx.body();
+  return ctx.status(201).json({ created: true, body });
 });
-```
 
-### Built-in helpers
-
-```ts
-import {
-  createCorsMiddleware,
-  createSecurityHeadersMiddleware,
-  createStaticMiddleware,
-  createLoggerMiddleware,
-} from "qhttpx";
-
-app.use(createCorsMiddleware());
-app.use(createSecurityHeadersMiddleware());
-app.use(
-  createStaticMiddleware({
-    root: "./public",
-    index: "index.html",
-    fallthrough: true,
-  }),
-);
-app.use(createLoggerMiddleware());
+// Start the server
+app.listen(3000).then(({ port }) => {
+  console.log(`Server running on http://localhost:${port}`);
+});
 ```
 
-These helpers provide:
+### 2. The Scalable Way (Cluster Mode)
+For production workloads utilizing all CPU cores.
 
-- CORS headers and preflight handling  
-- Security headers (CSP, referrer policy, X-Frame-Options, etc.)  
-- Static file serving from a directory  
-- Structured request logging with pluggable sink  
+```bash
+# Start your app in cluster mode
+npx qhttpx start dist/index.js
+```
 
 ---
 
-## Context
-
-Each request receives a high-performance context:
-
-- `ctx.req`        – raw Node request  
-- `ctx.res`        – raw Node response  
-- `ctx.body`       – parsed body (JSON for application/json, otherwise Buffer)  
-- `ctx.query`      – parsed query parameters  
-- `ctx.params`     – route params from the path  
-- `ctx.json()`     – fast JSON response helper  
-- `ctx.send()`     – buffer / text response helper  
+## 🛠️ Advanced Usage
 
-### Streaming helpers
+### Request Fusion (The "Magic")
+Enable `enableRequestFusion` to automatically deduplicate traffic.
 
-QHTTPX also exposes helpers for streaming and Server-Sent Events:
-
-```ts
-import { createSseStream, sendStream } from "qhttpx";
-
-app.get("/events", (ctx) => {
-  const sse = createSseStream(ctx, { retryMs: 2000 });
-  sse.send({ message: "hello" });
-  sse.close();
+```typescript
+const app = new QHTTPX({ 
+  enableRequestFusion: true 
 });
 
-app.get("/download", async (ctx) => {
-  const fileStream = fs.createReadStream("big-file.dat");
-  await sendStream(ctx, fileStream, {
-    contentType: "application/octet-stream",
-    status: 200,
-  });
+// If 50 users hit this endpoint simultaneously, 
+// the database query runs only ONCE.
+app.get("/heavy-query", async (ctx) => {
+  const data = await db.expensiveQuery();
+  return ctx.json(data);
 });
 ```
 
----
+### Real-Time (SSE & WebSockets)
 
-## Hybrid Task Engine (v0.2+)
+```typescript
+// Server-Sent Events
+app.get('/events', (ctx) => {
+  const stream = createSSE(ctx);
+  setInterval(() => {
+    stream.send({ time: Date.now() }, 'tick');
+  }, 1000);
+});
 
-```ts
-app.task("email-worker", async job => {
-  // background execution using same scheduler as HTTP
+// WebSockets with Rooms
+app.websocket('/chat', {
+  open(ws) {
+    ws.subscribe('general');
+  },
+  message(ws, msg) {
+    ws.publish('general', msg); // Broadcast to everyone in 'general'
+  }
 });
 ```
 
-The same scheduler that powers HTTP requests also powers background tasks and long-running async workflows.
