           KEEBS MECHANICAL KEYBOARD AUDIO (WINDOWS EDITION)
========================================================================

Thank you for downloading Keebs!

HOW TO START (Takes 5 seconds):
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Double-click "build_and_run.bat"
2. If your PC does not have .NET 8 yet, the script will ask:
   "Would you like to automatically install it right now? (Y/N)"
   -> Type Y and press Enter. It installs Microsoft .NET in 30 seconds!
3. Keebs will launch immediately!

WHERE IS THE APP?
------------------------------------------------------------------------
When launched, Keebs opens the sleek "Keebs Studio" window where you 
can audition, filter, and test all 27+ mechanical switches in real-time!

When you close the Studio window, Keebs keeps running quietly in your 
Windows Taskbar Tray (bottom-right corner, next to the clock) so typing 
sounds continue in all games, browsers, and applications. 
Double-click the tray icon at any time to reopen Studio!

HOW TO USE:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
- In Keebs Studio:
  * "Sound Showroom" -> Search, tag filter, audition, and switch sound packs
  * "Acoustic Controls" -> Master volume, binaural 3D spatial panning, upstroke clack
  * "Live Test Pad" -> Real-time typing responsiveness test
  * "Launch on Windows Startup" -> Start automatically when PC boots
- In Taskbar Tray:
  * Click icon (Left or Right) -> Sleek dark obsidian quick menu (switch profiles, volume presets, toggles)
  * Double-click icon -> Reopens Keebs Studio window

WANT A STANDALONE SINGLE .EXE (NO INSTALL REQUIRED)?
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Double-click "publish_single_exe.bat". It will generate a portable 
"Keebs.exe" inside the "publish\" folder that you can copy to ANY 
Windows computer!

Enjoy typing!
