-This is a [Next.js](https://nextjs.org) project bootstrapped with [`create-next-app`](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/cli/create-next-app).
+# Otto — Travel Activity Planner
 
-## Getting Started
+API-powered planner for things to do in your destination.  
+Choose dates + **number of days**, pick an **Experience Mode** (Foodie, Cultural, Adventurous...), set a budget, and get a realistic day-by-day itinerary backed by live data from Geoapify and Ticketmaster.
 
-First, run the development server:
+Everything in English. Follows `karpathy.md`.
+
+## Quick Start (Docker recommended)
 
 ```bash
-npm run dev
-# or
-yarn dev
-# or
-pnpm dev
-# or
-bun dev
+cp .env.example .env
+# Fill GEOAPIFY_API_KEY and TICKETMASTER_API_KEY (free tiers available)
+
+docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build
 ```
 
+Open http://localhost:3000
+
+## Without Docker
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm run db:migrate   # requires a running Postgres (see .env)
+npm run dev
+```
+
+## Key Features (MVP)
+- Explicit number of days (not just date math)
+- 6 Experience Modes that bias the entire plan
+- One-click adjustment buttons after generation
+- Budget respected + cost estimates
+- Real places + events from APIs
+- Leaflet map
+- Save & share by ID
+
+See the detailed plan in the session `plan.md` for architecture and phases.
+
+## Environment
+
+Required keys (free tiers):
+- Geoapify
+- Ticketmaster
+
+LLM key for future full generation (currently stubbed).
+
+## Development
+
+- Follow `karpathy.md` + `AGENTS.md`
+- `npm run lint`
+- `npm run build`
+
