Summary

Replaces the internal operational README with a polished, recruiter-ready project overview. Leads with impact metrics, covers the full tech stack and feature set, and links to the live Westside Kings & Queens frontend.

Replaced with portfolio-grade content: impact banner (632 tests, 27 migrations, 17 route modules), stack summary, feature descriptions, architecture diagram, and streamlined dev setup.

  • Visual review: README renders correctly in Forgejo markdown preview
