 Automated linter installation and configuration for consistent code quality across teams and environments.
 
-## Why lint-install?
-
-Maintaining consistent code quality across a team can be challenging. Different developers might use different linters, versions, or configurations, leading to:
-
-- **Inconsistent code reviews** - Style debates instead of logic discussions
-- **CI/CD failures** - Code that passes locally but fails in CI due to different linter versions
-- **Configuration drift** - Each project reinventing its own linting setup
-- **Onboarding friction** - New contributors struggling with tooling setup
-
-lint-install solves these problems by providing:
-
-- **One command setup** - Instantly adds industry-standard linters to any project
-- **Version pinning** - Everyone uses the exact same linter versions
-- **Consistent configuration** - Opinionated, battle-tested linter rules
-- **Easy updates** - Upgrade all linters across your entire team with one command
-- **Multi-environment support** - Same linting in local development, CI/CD, and IDEs
-
-## How it works
-
-lint-install adds Makefile rules and linter configurations to your project root. It installs specific versions of well-configured linters that can be used consistently by all contributors, whether they're working locally, in CI, or using an IDE.
-
-Currently supported languages:
-
-- **Go** - golangci-lint with comprehensive checks
-- **Shell** - shellcheck for POSIX compliance and best practices  
-- **Dockerfile** - hadolint for security and best practices
-- **YAML** - yamllint for syntax and style
-
-## Philosophy
-
-- Catch all the bugs!
-- Improve readability as much as possible.
-- Be idiomatic: only raise issues that the language authors would flag
-
-## Installation
+## Quick Start
 
 ```bash
+# Install
 go install github.com/codeGROOVE-dev/lint-install@latest
-```
-
-## Usage
-
-### Basic usage
 
-Add linters to your project:
-
-```bash
+# Add linters to your project
 lint-install .
+
+# Run linters
+make lint
 ```
 
-This creates:
-- Makefile rules for installing and running linters
-- Configuration files for each detected language
-- A `.gitignore` entry for the linter binaries
+## Why Use It?
 
-Run the linters:
+- **One command setup** - Adds industry-standard linters instantly
+- **Version pinning** - Same linter versions for everyone
+- **Battle-tested configs** - Opinionated rules that catch real bugs
+- **Multi-environment** - Works locally, in CI/CD, and IDEs
 
-```bash
-make lint
-```
+## Supported Languages
 
-### Examples
+- **Go** - golangci-lint
+- **Shell** - shellcheck
+- **Dockerfile** - hadolint
+- **YAML** - yamllint
+
+## Usage Examples
 
-**Adding linters to a Go project:**
 ```bash
-cd my-go-project
+# Basic usage
 lint-install .
 make lint
-```
 
-**Selective language support:**
-```bash
-# Only add Go and Shell linters, ignore others
+# Only Go and Shell linters
 lint-install -dockerfile=ignore -yaml=ignore .
-```
 
-**Preview changes without applying:**
-```bash
+# Preview changes
 lint-install -dry-run .
-```
 
-**CI/CD integration:**
-```yaml
-# GitHub Actions example
-- name: Install linters
-  run: make lint-install
-
-- name: Run linters
-  run: make lint
+# CI/CD (GitHub Actions)
+- run: make lint-install
+- run: make lint
 ```
 
-**Updating linter versions:**
-```bash
-# Re-run lint-install to update to latest versions
-lint-install .
-git add Makefile .*.version
-git commit -m "Update linter versions"
-```
-

-### What gets added to your project
-
-1. **Makefile targets:**
-   - `make lint` - Run all configured linters
-   - `make lint-<language>` - Run specific language linter
-   - `make lint-install` - Install the linter binaries
-
-2. **Configuration files:**
-   - `.golangci.yml` - Go linting rules
-   - `.hadolint.yaml` - Dockerfile linting rules
-   - `.yamllint` - YAML linting rules
-   - `.*.version` files - Pinned linter versions
-
-3. **Linter binaries:**
-   - Installed to `./out/linters/` (git-ignored)
-   - Consistent versions across all environments
-
-## Features
+## What Gets Added
 
-- **Zero configuration** - Sensible defaults that work for most projects
-- **Language detection** - Automatically identifies which linters to install
-- **Version management** - Pins linter versions for reproducible builds
-- **Makefile integration** - Works with existing build systems
-- **Incremental adoption** - Control which languages to lint
-- **IDE friendly** - Linters work with VSCode, GoLand, and other editors
-- **Fast installation** - Downloads pre-built binaries when available
-- **Cross-platform** - Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows
+- **Makefile targets**: `lint`, `lint-<language>`, `lint-install`
+- **Config files**: `.golangci.yml`, `.hadolint.yaml`, `.yamllint`
+- **Version files**: `.*.version` for reproducible builds
+- **Linter binaries**: `./out/linters/` (git-ignored)
