+# Arduino
+
+Sensor interface running on Arduino Nano, communicating with Pi via UART.
+
+## Sketches
+
+| Folder | Purpose |
+|--------|---------|
+| `main/` | Primary telemetry sketch |
+
+## Current Capabilities
+
+- Battery voltage monitoring (voltage divider on A0)
+- Serial output at 9600 baud, 1Hz update rate
+
+## Planned
+
+- RPM sensing (pulse counting from ignition coil)
+- Engine temperature (thermocouple/NTC)
+- Gear position indicator
+- Turn signal / high beam status
+
+## Hardware
+
+- **MCU**: Arduino Nano (ATmega328P)
+- **Connection**: UART to Pi GPIO (TX→RX, RX→TX, common GND)
+- **Voltage sensing**: Resistor divider scaled for 0-20V input range
+
+## Protocol
+
+Simple text-based for now:
+```
+V_bat: 12.45V
+```
+
+Future: structured binary or JSON for multiple sensors.

+# Extra Assets
+
+Runtime assets deployed alongside the Flutter app. Not bundled into the binary — loaded from disk at runtime via paths in `config.json`.

+
+## Themes
+
+JSON files defining dark/bright color schemes. Converted to Dart by `scripts/generate_theme.py`.
+
+### Format
+
+```json
+{
+  "dark": {
+    "background": "#101010",
+    "foreground": "#EAEAEA",
+    "highlight": "#FA1504",
+    "subdued": "#E47841"
+  },
+  "bright": {
+    "background": "#E47841",
+    "foreground": "#202020",
+    "highlight": "#F0F0F0",
+    "subdued": "#BC4600"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Adding a Theme
+
+1. Create `extra/themes/yournavigator.json`
+2. Set `"navigator": "yournavigator"` in `pi/ui/config.json`
+3. Build — `generate_theme.py` picks it up automatically
+
+### Fallback Chain
+
+`{navigator}.json` → `default.json` → hardcoded defaults

+# Flutter App Structure
+
+## Entry Flow
+
+```
+main.dart → AppThemeProvider → MaterialApp → AppRoot → Screen
+```
+
+## Folders
+
+| Folder | Purpose |
+|--------|---------|
+| `screens/` | Full-screen views (splash, dashboard, overheat) |
+| `widgets/` | Reusable components (stat_box, navigator) |
+| `services/` | Singletons with business logic |
+| `theme/` | Color definitions and runtime theme switching |
+
+## Services
+
+All services use singleton pattern with `ServiceName.instance`.
+
+| Service | Role |
+|---------|------|
+| `ConfigService` | Loads `config.json`, exposes settings |
+| `PiIO` | Pi hardware interface (CPU temp, future GPIO) |
+| `OverheatMonitor` | Polls temp, fires callback when threshold exceeded |
+| `ThemeService` | Dark/bright mode state, notifies listeners |
+| `TestFlipFlopService` | Debug: toggles theme + navigator emotion every 2s |
+
+## Theme System
+
+- `AppColors` — static color constants (dark/bright variants), auto-generated from JSON
+- `AppTheme` — InheritedWidget providing runtime colors via `AppTheme.of(context)`
+- `ThemeService` — singleton holding current mode, call `setDarkMode(bool)` or `toggle()`
+
+Usage in widgets:
+```dart
+final theme = AppTheme.of(context);
+backgroundColor: theme.background,
+color: theme.foreground,
+```
+
+## Screen Lifecycle
+
+`AppRoot` manages which screen is visible:
+1. **SplashScreen** — during init sequence
+2. **DashboardScreen** — normal operation
+3. **OverheatScreen** — when `OverheatMonitor` triggers (leads to shutdown)

+# Scripts
+
+Build, deploy, and setup helpers for the Smart Serow project.
+
+## Build & Deploy
+
+| Script | Purpose |
+|--------|---------|
+| `build.py` | Cross-compile Flutter app for ARM64. Runs `generate_theme.py` first. |
+| `deploy.py` | rsync bundle to Pi, optionally restart service |
+| `build-deploy.py` | Convenience wrapper: build → deploy → restart |
+
+```bash
+# Typical workflow
+python3 build.py              # Build only
+python3 deploy.py --restart   # Deploy and restart service
+python3 build-deploy.py       # All-in-one
+
+# Clean rebuild (clears CMake cache)
+python3 build.py --clean
+```
+
+## Theme Generation
+
+| Script | Purpose |
+|--------|---------|
+| `generate_theme.py` | Converts `extra/themes/*.json` → `pi/ui/lib/theme/app_colors.dart` |
+
+Called automatically by `build.py`. Looks for theme matching `navigator` in `config.json`, falls back to `default.json`.
+
+## Pi Setup
+
+| Script | Purpose |
+|--------|---------|
+| `pi_setup.sh` | First-time Pi configuration (deps, permissions, systemd service) |
+| `smartserow-ui.service.sample` | Systemd unit file template |
+
+```bash
+# On the Pi
+chmod +x pi_setup.sh
+./pi_setup.sh
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `deploy_target.sample.json` | Template for deploy settings |
+| `deploy_target.json` | Your actual deploy config (gitignored) |
+
+```json
+{
+  "user": "pi",
+  "host": "raspberrypi.local",
+  "remote_path": "/opt/smartserow",
+  "service_name": "smartserow-ui"
+}
+```
+
+## Shell vs Python
+
+Both `.sh` and `.py` versions exist for some scripts. The Python versions are more robust (better error handling, colored output). Use those.
