 # python-template
 
-A minimal Python template with strict defaults for projects that want to stay small, typed, and
-easy to maintain.
+A small Python starter with strict defaults, fast feedback, and a package layout that scales past

+## Defaults
 
 - `uv` for dependency and lockfile management
-- `src/` layout with Hatchling-based packaging
-- Click-powered CLI entry point
-- Ruff, Pyright, and pytest configured as the default quality bar
-- GitHub Actions for CI, build validation, and tag-based release artifacts
