-== SPORTSELLO
+= SPORTSELLO
Sportsello is a social platform to connect sports fans with sports bars and other venues.
+== About
+Originally created as a Lighthouse Labs final project, it is written using Rails as an API and Vue.js as a frontend.
+All of the Vue code is currently in the app/assets/javascripts/home.js.erb file, with plans to slowly refactor the code into single-file components to comply with Vue best practices. There are also plans to migrate the backend from Rails onto Node.js.
