-# Python Flask Webserver Template
+# Fire Explorer
 
-Python3 website template including git actions
+Fire Explorer is a Flask-based Handshake blockchain explorer UI and API.
+It provides searchable views for blocks, transactions, addresses, and names, plus utility endpoints for namehash resolution, HIP-02 lookup, and covenant display rendering.
 
-# Development
-1. Install requirements
-```bash
-python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
-```
-2. Run the dev server
-```bash
-python3 server.py
+## Features
+
+- Search Handshake data by block, header, transaction, address, and name.
+- Route-based deep links such as `/tx/<hash>` and `/block/<height-or-hash>`.
+- Dynamic Open Graph card generation at `/og-image` and `/og-image.png`.
+- HIP-02 and WALLET DNS record resolution endpoint.
+- SQLite namehash cache to reduce repeated upstream lookups.
+- Single-container deployment flow with Docker.
+
+## Tech Stack
+
+- Python 3.13+
+- Flask
+- Gunicorn (started programmatically via `main.py`)
+- SQLite (local cache DB)
+- Pillow (OG image rendering)
+- Requests and DNS tooling for Handshake integrations
+
+## Project Layout
+
+```text
+.
+|- main.py                 # Gunicorn entrypoint
+|- server.py               # Flask app, routes, API, OG generation
+|- tools.py                # HIP-02 and DNS helper functions
+|- templates/              # HTML templates + static assets
+|- pyproject.toml          # Project metadata and dependencies (uv)
+|- requirements.txt        # Exported lock-style requirements
+|- Dockerfile              # Container build and runtime setup
 ```
 
-# Production
-Run using the main.py file
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Python 3.13 or newer
+- `uv` (recommended) or `pip`
+- OpenSSL CLI available in PATH (required for HIP-02 certificate checks in `tools.py`)
+
+## Local Development
+
+### Option 1: `uv` (recommended)
+
 ```bash
-python3 main.py
-```
+uv sync
+uv run main.py
+```
+
+The app binds to `0.0.0.0:5000` when started through `main.py`.
+
+### Option 2: `pip`
+
+```bash
+python -m venv .venv
+# Linux/macOS
+source .venv/bin/activate
+# Windows (PowerShell)
+# .venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
+
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+python main.py
+```
+
+### Flask debug mode
+
+```bash
+python server.py
+```
+
+This runs Flask's built-in development server at `127.0.0.1:5000`.
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+Configure via shell variables or a `.env` file.
+
+- `WORKERS`
+: Gunicorn worker count. Default: `1`.
+- `THREADS`
+: Gunicorn thread count per worker. Default: `2`.
+- `DATABASE_PATH`
+: SQLite file path for the namehash cache. Default: `fireexplorer.db`.
+- `HSD_API_BASE`
+: Upstream Handshake API base URL. Default: `https://hsd.hns.au/api/v1`.
+- `PUBLIC_BASE_URL`
+: Optional canonical public URL used for OG metadata generation.
+
+## Docker
+
+Build:
+
+```bash
+docker build -t fireexplorer .
+```
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm -p 5000:5000 -v fireexplorer-data:/data fireexplorer
+```
+
+Container notes:
+
+- The image runs `uv run main.py`.
+- The default database path is set to `/data/fireexplorer.db`.
+- A volume is declared at `/data` for persistence.
+
+## HTTP Routes
+
+### UI routes
+
+- `/`
+- `/block/<block_id>`
+- `/header/<block_id>`
+- `/tx/<tx_hash>`
+- `/address/<address>`
+- `/name/<name>`
+- `/coin/<coin_hash>/<index>`
+- `/og-image`
+- `/og-image.png`
+
+### API routes
+
+- `GET /api/v1/status`
+: Service health and local cache stats.
+- `GET /api/v1/namehash/<namehash>`
+: Resolves namehash to name (cached in SQLite).
+- `GET /api/v1/hip02/<domain>`
+: Resolves HIP-02, falls back to WALLET TXT-style record lookup.
+- `POST /api/v1/covenant`
+: Accepts one covenant object or an array and returns display-ready covenant labels, including cached name resolution.
+
+## Development Tooling
+
+Pre-commit config includes:
+
+- `uv-lock`
+- `uv-export`
+- `ruff-check`
+- `ruff-format`
+
+Run hooks locally:
+
+```bash
+pre-commit run --all-files
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+- Frontend requests blockchain data from `https://hsd.hns.au/api/v1/`.
+- Namehash mappings are cached locally in SQLite to improve repeated lookups.
+- HIP-02 resolution requires DNS-over-HTTPS access and OpenSSL availability.
