+## Overview
+
+This project provides:
+- A FastAPI backend with endpoints for receiving and querying telemetry data.
+- SQLite-based storage for snapshots and live state.
+- A live, interactive map using static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
+- An analytics dashboard for visualizing kills and session metrics.
+
+## Features
+
+- **POST /position**: Submit a telemetry snapshot (protected by a shared secret).
+- **GET /live**: Fetch active players seen in the last 30 seconds.
+- **GET /history**: Retrieve historical telemetry data with optional time filtering.
+- **GET /debug**: Health check endpoint.
+- **Live Map**: Interactive map interface with panning, zooming, and sorting.
+- **Analytics Dashboard**: Charts for kills over time and kills per hour.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Python 3.9 or newer
+- pip
+- (Optional) virtual environment tool (venv)
+
+Python packages:
+
+- fastapi
+- uvicorn
+- pydantic
+- pandas
+- matplotlib
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Clone the repository:
+   ```bash
+   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/dereth-tracker.git
+   cd dereth-tracker
+   ```
+2. Create and activate a virtual environment:
+   ```bash
+   python3 -m venv venv
+   source venv/bin/activate  # Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
+   ```
+3. Install dependencies:
+   ```bash
+   pip install fastapi uvicorn pydantic pandas matplotlib
+   ```
+
+## Configuration
+
+- Update the `SHARED_SECRET` in `main.py` to match your plugin (default: `"your_shared_secret"`).
+- The SQLite database file `dereth.db` is created in the project root. To change the path, edit `DB_FILE` in `db.py`.
+
+## Usage
+
+Start the server using Uvicorn:
+
+```bash
+uvicorn main:app --reload --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
+```
+
+- Live Map: `http://localhost:8000/`
+- Analytics Dashboard: `http://localhost:8000/graphs.html`
