+## Overview
+
+This project highlights my interest in scalable backend systems, data parsing, and user-focused tooling.
+
+It started as a smaller utility but expanded into a much larger system handling killfeeds, alarms, faction armbands, server data, and other game-related features.
+
+## Focus Areas
+
+- Parsing and structuring raw game server data
+- Storing and querying useful analytics data
+- Designing for modular growth and future expansion
+
+## Notes
+
+This is one of the projects that best reflects how I like to build software: practical, data-driven, and designed with extensibility in mind.
