 # Seed: Minimal FRP/TEA Web App Starter Kit
 
-This is an opinionated, minimal starting point for browser-native web apps using a functional, Elm-style architecture (FRP/TEA) and only browser APIs. No frameworks, no build step, just ES modules.
+This is an opinionated, hopefully simple starting point for browser-native web apps using a functional, Elm-style architecture (FRP/TEA) and only browser APIs. No rulers, no kings, no frameworks, no build step, only ES modules.
 
 ## Architecture

 - **View**: Pure function `(state) => html`
 - **Entrypoint**: Handles events, dispatches actions, triggers re-render
 
-## Why?
-- Simple, testable, and maintainable
-- No dependencies
-- Encourages functional, declarative code

 ## How to Extend and Use This Template

+This template is designed to be a flexible, opinionated starting point for any kinda app, especially proofs of concept, toys, and prototypes.
 
 ### Key Files to Extend
 - **src/state.js**: Define the app's state shape and any helper functions for cloning or initializing state.

 ### Tips
-- Keep all state transitions in `update.js` for predictability.
-- Keep all DOM rendering in `view.js` for clarity.
-- Use the `postRender` hook for accessibility or focus management.

 - Add new features by extending state, update, view, and wiring up events in `app.js`.
