+Vector provides full type safety with customizable types. Define your types in the config and use them in routes:
 
-## Familiar Patterns, Modern Performance
+```typescript
+// vector.config.ts
+import type { VectorConfigSchema, VectorTypes } from "vector-framework";
 
-### Real-World Example: User Service
+// Define your custom user type
+interface MyUser {
+  id: string;
+  email: string;
+  role: "admin" | "user";
+  permissions: string[];
+}
 
-```typescript
-// routes/users.ts
-import { route } from "vector-framework";
-import { db } from "../db";
+// Extend Vector types
+interface MyAppTypes extends VectorTypes {
+  auth: MyUser;
+}
 
-// Public endpoint with caching
-export const listUsers = route(
-  {
-    method: "GET",
-    path: "/users",
-    cache: 300, // Cache for 5 minutes
-  },
-  async () => {
-    const users = await db.user.findMany();
-    return { users };
-  }
-);
+// Use in config with type parameter
+const config: VectorConfigSchema<MyAppTypes> = {
+  port: 3000,
 
-// Protected endpoint with automatic body parsing
-export const createUser = route(
-  {
-    method: "POST",
-    path: "/users",
-    auth: true, // Auth required
+  // Auth handler returns your custom type
+  auth: async (request): Promise<MyUser> => {
+    // Your auth logic
+    return {
+      id: "user-123",
+      email: "user@example.com",
+      role: "admin",
+      permissions: ["read", "write"],
+    };
   },
-  async (req) => {
-    const { name, email } = req.content; // Type-safe, auto-parsed
+};
 
-    const user = await db.user.create({
-      data: { name, email },
-    });
+export default config;
+export type { MyAppTypes }; // Export for use in routes
+```
 
-    return { user };
-  }
-);
+```typescript
+// routes/admin.ts
+import { route, APIError } from "vector-framework";
+import type { MyAppTypes } from "../vector.config";
 
-// Parameter extraction made simple
-export const getUser = route(
+// Use type parameter to get fully typed request
+export const adminOnly = route<MyAppTypes>(
   {
     method: "GET",
-    path: "/users/:id",
+    path: "/admin/data",
+    auth: true,
+    expose: true,
   },
   async (req) => {
-    const { id } = req.params!;
-    const user = await db.user.findUnique({ where: { id } });
-
-    if (!user) {
-      throw new APIError("User not found", 404);
+    // req.authUser is now typed as MyUser
+    if (req.authUser?.role !== "admin") {
+      throw APIError.forbidden("Admin access required");
     }
 
-    return { user };
+    // TypeScript knows these properties exist
+    return {
+      user: req.authUser.email,
+      permissions: req.authUser.permissions,
+    };
   }
 );
 ```

+  };
+  rawRequest?: boolean;    // Skip body parsing
+  rawResponse?: boolean;   // Return raw response
+  responseContentType?: string; // Response content type
+}
+```
 
-### 🔄 Easy Migration
+### Request Object
 
-Moving from Express, Fastify, or Encore? Vector makes it simple:
+Every route handler receives a typed request object:
 
 ```typescript
-// Encore-style (what you know)
-export const get = api(
-  { expose: true, method: "GET", path: "/hello/:name" },
-  async ({ name }: { name: string }): Promise<Response> => {
-    const msg = `Hello ${name}!`;
-    return { message: msg };
-  }
-);
-
-// Vector-style (what you write)
-export const hello = route(
-  { expose: true, method: "GET", path: "/hello/:name" },
+export const example = route(
+  { method: "POST", path: "/example/:id" },
   async (req) => {
-    return { message: `Hello ${req.params.name}!` };
+    // All available request properties:
+    req.params.id;        // URL parameters
+    req.query.search;      // Query parameters
+    req.headers;           // Request headers
+    req.cookies;           // Parsed cookies
+    req.content;           // Parsed body (JSON/form data)
+    req.authUser;          // Authenticated user (when auth: true)
+    req.context;           // Request context
+    req.metadata;          // Route metadata
   }
 );
 ```
 
-## For Encore Users
-
-Switching from Encore? You'll feel right at home. Vector provides the same declarative, type-safe API design with the performance benefits of Bun:
+### Error Handling
 
-| Encore                 | Vector                           |
-| ---------------------- | -------------------------------- |
-| `api.requireAuth()`    | `{ auth: true }` in route config |
-| Auto-generated clients | Not yet available                |
-| Built-in tracing       | Middleware support               |
-| Cloud deployment       | Deploy anywhere Bun runs         |
-
-**The key difference:** Vector runs on Bun, giving you significantly better performance and lower resource usage while maintaining the developer experience you love.
-
-## Route Options
+Vector provides comprehensive error responses:
 
 ```typescript
-interface RouteOptions {
-  method: string; // HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.)
-  path: string; // Route path with params (/users/:id)
-  expose?: boolean; // Make route accessible (default: true)
-  auth?: boolean; // Require authentication (default: false)
-  cache?:
-    | number
-    | {
-        // Cache configuration
-        ttl: number; // Time to live in seconds
-        key?: string; // Custom cache key
-      };
-  rawRequest?: boolean; // Skip body parsing (default: false)
-  rawResponse?: boolean; // Return raw response (default: false)
-  responseContentType?: string; // Response content type
-}
-```
+import { APIError } from "vector-framework";
 
-## Middleware
+export const example = route(
+  { method: "GET", path: "/data/:id" },
+  async (req) => {
+    // Client errors (4xx)
+    if (!req.params.id) {
+      throw APIError.badRequest("ID is required");
+    }
 
-### Before Middleware (Pre-handlers)
+    const data = await findData(req.params.id);
+    if (!data) {
+      throw APIError.notFound("Data not found");
+    }
 
-```typescript
-const authMiddleware = async (request) => {
-  // Modify request or return Response to short-circuit
-  request.customData = "value";
-  return request;
-};
+    if (!canAccess(req.authUser, data)) {
+      throw APIError.forbidden("Access denied");
+    }
 
-const rateLimitMiddleware = async (request) => {
-  // Return Response to stop processing
-  if (tooManyRequests) {
-    return new Response("Too Many Requests", { status: 429 });
+    // Rate limiting
+    if (await isRateLimited(req)) {
+      throw APIError.tooManyRequests("Please wait before trying again");
+    }
+
+    // Server errors (5xx)
+    try {
+      return await processData(data);
+    } catch (error) {
+      throw APIError.internalServerError("Processing failed");
+    }
   }
-  return request;
-};
+);
 ```
 
-### Finally Middleware (Post-handlers)
+## Configuration Reference
+
+### VectorConfigSchema
 
 ```typescript
-const corsMiddleware = async (response, request) => {
-  // Modify response headers
-  response.headers.set("X-Custom-Header", "value");
-  return response;
-};
+interface VectorConfigSchema {
+  // Server
+  port?: number;              // Server port (default: 3000)
+  hostname?: string;          // Server hostname (default: localhost)
+  reusePort?: boolean;        // Reuse port (default: true)
+  development?: boolean;      // Development mode
+  routesDir?: string;         // Routes directory (default: ./routes)
+  idleTimeout?: number;       // Idle timeout in seconds
+
+  // CORS
+  cors?: CorsOptions | boolean;
+
+  // Handlers

+
+  // Middleware
+  before?: BeforeMiddleware[]; // Pre-request middleware
+  after?: AfterMiddleware[];    // Post-response middleware
+}
 ```
 
-## Authentication
-
-Implement your authentication logic:
+### Example: Full Configuration
 
 ```typescript
-vector.protected = async (request) => {
-  const authHeader = request.headers.get("Authorization");
-
-  if (!authHeader?.startsWith("Bearer ")) {
-    throw new Error("Invalid authorization header");
-  }
+// vector.config.ts
+import type { VectorConfigSchema } from "vector-framework";
+import { verifyJWT } from "./lib/auth";
+import { redis } from "./lib/redis";
 
-  const token = authHeader.substring(7);
-  const user = await validateToken(token);
+const config: VectorConfigSchema = {
+  port: process.env.PORT || 3000,
+  hostname: "0.0.0.0",
+  development: process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production",
+  routesDir: "./api/routes",
+  idleTimeout: 60,
 
-  if (!user) {
-    throw new Error("Invalid token");
-  }
+  cors: {
+    origin: ["https://example.com", "https://app.example.com"],
+    credentials: true,
+    allowHeaders: ["Content-Type", "Authorization", "X-Request-ID"],
+    allowMethods: ["GET", "POST", "PUT", "DELETE"],
+    maxAge: 86400,
+  },
 
-  return user; // This will be available as req.authUser
-};
-```
+  auth: async (request) => {
+    const token = request.headers.get("Authorization")?.replace("Bearer ", "");
+    if (!token) throw new Error("No token provided");
 
-## Caching
+    const user = await verifyJWT(token);
+    if (!user) throw new Error("Invalid token");
 
-Implement your caching strategy:
+    return user;
+  },
 
-```typescript
-vector.cache = async (key, factory, ttl) => {
-  // Example with Redis
-  const cached = await redis.get(key);
-  if (cached) return JSON.parse(cached);
+  cache: async (key, factory, ttl) => {
+    const cached = await redis.get(key);
+    if (cached) return JSON.parse(cached);
 
-  const value = await factory();
-  await redis.setex(key, ttl, JSON.stringify(value));
+    const value = await factory();
+    await redis.setex(key, ttl, JSON.stringify(value));
+    return value;
+  },
 
-  return value;
+  before: [
+    // Logging middleware
+    async (request) => {
+      request.startTime = Date.now();
+      console.log(`[${new Date().toISOString()}] ${request.method} ${request.url}`);
+      return request;
+    },
+
+    // Request ID middleware
+    async (request) => {
+      request.id = crypto.randomUUID();
+      return request;
+    },
+  ],
+
+  after: [
+    // Response time header
+    async (response, request) => {
+      const duration = Date.now() - request.startTime;
+      response.headers.set("X-Response-Time", `${duration}ms`);
+      return response;
+    },
+
+    // Security headers
+    async (response) => {
+      response.headers.set("X-Content-Type-Options", "nosniff");
+      response.headers.set("X-Frame-Options", "DENY");
+      return response;

-## TypeScript Support
+## Performance
 
-Vector is written in TypeScript and provides full type safety with customizable types:
+Vector achieves exceptional performance through:
 
-```typescript
-import { createVector, route, APIError } from "vector-framework";
-import type { VectorRequest, VectorTypes } from "vector-framework";
+- **Bun Runtime**: Native TypeScript execution without transpilation
+- **Minimal Dependencies**: Only itty-router (3KB) as dependency
+- **Optimized Routing**: Efficient regex-based route matching
+- **Smart Caching**: Built-in response caching with configurable TTL
 
-// Define your custom user type
-interface MyUser {
-  id: string;
-  email: string;
-  role: "admin" | "user";
-  permissions: string[];
-}
+Benchmarks show Vector handling **70,000+ requests/second** on standard hardware.
 
-// Extend Vector types
-interface MyAppTypes extends VectorTypes {
-  auth: MyUser;
-}
+## Why Vector?
 
-// Create typed Vector instance
-const vector = createVector<MyAppTypes>();
-
-// Configure authentication with your custom type
-vector.protected = async (request): Promise<MyUser> => {
-  // Your auth logic here
-  return {
-    id: "user-123",
-    email: "user@example.com",
-    role: "admin",
-    permissions: ["read", "write"],
-  };
-};
+### For Encore Users
+Love Encore's declarative API design but need more flexibility? Vector provides the same developer experience with the freedom to deploy anywhere Bun runs.
 
-// Routes automatically have typed authUser
-vector.route(
-  { method: "GET", path: "/admin", expose: true, auth: true },
-  async (request) => {
-    // request.authUser is typed as MyUser
-    if (request.authUser?.role !== "admin") {
-      throw APIError.forbidden("Admin access required");
-    }
-    return { adminData: "..." };
-  }
-);
-```
+### For Express/Fastify Users
+Tired of middleware chains and verbose configurations? Vector's declarative approach makes APIs cleaner and more maintainable.
 
-## Error Handling
+### For New Projects
+Starting fresh? Vector gives you production-ready features from day one with minimal configuration.
 
-Vector provides comprehensive built-in error responses for all HTTP status codes:
+## Error Reference
 
-### Common Client Errors (4xx)
+Vector provides comprehensive error responses for all HTTP status codes. All errors return a consistent format:
+
+```json
+{
+  "error": true,
