-I was frustrated with every anime tracker I tried. Decent UI but awkward UX. Good features but missing the ones I actually use. So I built my own: search fast, get context fast, update your status fast, and move on.

-This project is personal first — I put it on GitHub because I like shipping in the open. It also doubles as proof that a small, server-rendered Go app can stay reliable even when upstream anime APIs are inconsistent.
+I built this because nothing else felt right. Every tracker I tried had decent pieces but the whole never clicked — awkward UI, missing features, or it just got in the way of actually watching anime. So I built one that fits how I work.
 
-- **Catalog browsing & seasonal discovery** — explore what's airing, filter by season
-- **Quick search** — find anime, get mal links, open the detail page in seconds
-- **Detail pages** — synopsis, stats, recommendations, related entries
-- **Watchlist management** — track your progress across statuses
-- **Continue watching** — pick up where you left off
-- **In-app playback** — proxy-based video player
+It is a self-hosted Go server that streams anime through a proxy layer, catalogs metadata, and tracks your progress.
 
-## Technical approach
-
-Written in Go with server-rendered `html/template`, SQLite + `sqlc` for typed queries, Tailwind CSS v4 for styling, and HTMX backed by small TypeScript modules for incremental interactions.
-
-The external anime data source is [Jikan](https://api.jikan.moe/v4). The client layer handles request pacing, bounded retries, backoff, stale-cache fallback, and a persisted retry queue. Playback proxying uses uTLS to bypass Cloudflare. The system is built to degrade gracefully under `429` and `5xx` responses rather than fail hard.
+The frontend is Tailwind CSS v4 with HTMX handling pagination, infinite scroll, search, and watchlist interactions. TypeScript only steps in where HTMX cannot — the video player, command palette bound to Cmd+K, skip segment editor, theme toggling with system preference detection, and custom UI components. Everything lives in one process, one SQLite database, one deployment.
