+# Zippy: A file-watching CLI for faster edit–build–run loops
 
-Zippy is a lightweight Zig-built CLI that watches a single Haskell source file and reruns your command the moment you save. It keeps your stdout clean, logs to stderr with levels, and stays out of your way during the edit–compile–run loop.
+Zippy is a lightweight Zig-built CLI that watches a file or directory and reruns your command the moment you save. It keeps your stdout clean, logs to stderr with levels, and stays out of your way during the edit–build–run loop.
 
 ## Quick start

 # Run from source (Linux/Arch):
 make build
-zig build run -- path/to/Main.hs

+sudo make install PREFIX=$HOME/.local  # user-local
 
 # Run zippy!
