+# Retold Quickstart Examples
+
+Working examples for each part of the Retold stack, corresponding to the
+[Getting Started](../../docs/getting-started.md) documentation.
+
+Retold applications are assembled from a layered architecture (see
+[Architecture](../../docs/architecture.md)):
+
+```
+Layer 5 — Your Application (business logic, custom endpoints)
+Layer 4 — Orator (HTTP server, middleware, static files)
+Layer 3 — Meadow-Endpoints (auto-generated CRUD routes)
+Layer 2 — Meadow + FoxHound + Stricture (data broker, SQL, schemas)
+Layer 1 — Fable (DI, configuration, logging, UUID, expressions)
+
+Pict   — Browser MVC (views, templates, providers, application lifecycle)
+Utility — Build tools, manifest management, documentation, process supervision
+```
+
+## Examples
+
+| Folder | Retold Layer | Module | Description |
+|--------|-------------|--------|-------------|
+| [layer1](layer1/) | Layer 1 — Fable | **Fable** | Core DI, configuration, logging, service provider pattern |
+| [layer2](layer2/) | Layer 2 — Meadow | **Meadow** | Data access with MySQL (CRUD, schemas, FoxHound queries) |
+| [layer3](layer3/) | Layer 4 — Orator | **Orator** | REST API server with Restify |
+| [layer4](layer4/) | Pict | **Pict** | Browser MVC with views, templates, and routing |
+| [layer5](layer5/) | Utility | **Manyfest** | Object navigation and schema validation |
+
+## Running
+
+Each example is self-contained. Enter any directory and run:
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm start        # or npm run demo for examples that need setup
+```
+
+The Meadow example (layer2) requires a running MySQL server on localhost:3306.
+Run `npm run setup` first to create the database and tables.
+
+The Pict example (layer4) requires a build step before serving:
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm run demo     # builds then serves on http://localhost:8086
+```

+# Layer 1: Fable - The Foundation
+
+> Retold Layer 1 — Core Ecosystem: dependency injection, configuration, logging,
+> UUID generation, expressions
+
+Fable is the foundation of every Retold application. All other modules depend on
+it and register as services through the Fable service provider pattern.
+
+## Run
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm start
+```
+
+## What This Demonstrates
+
+- Creating a Fable instance with configuration
+- Logging at different levels
+- UUID generation
+- The service provider pattern (creating and using custom services)

+# Layer 2: Meadow - Data Access
+
+> Retold Layer 2 — Data broker / ORM: Meadow + FoxHound (query DSL) + Stricture
+> (schema DDL), with pluggable database connections (MySQL, MSSQL, SQLite)
+
+Meadow provides provider-agnostic CRUD operations with automatic audit columns,
+soft deletes, and schema-driven query generation through FoxHound.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+A MySQL server running locally on port 3306 with root access.
+
+## Run
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm run setup   # Creates the database and table
+npm start       # Runs CRUD operations
+```
+
+Or run both steps together:
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm run demo
+```
+
+## What This Demonstrates
+
+- Connecting to MySQL via the Meadow connection provider
+- Defining entity schemas (Meadow schema + JSON schema)
+- Full CRUD operations: Create, Read, Reads, Update, Delete
+- FoxHound query builder with filters, sorting, and pagination
+- Audit columns (CreateDate, UpdateDate) and soft deletes
