+## Installation
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone https://github.com/yourrepo/py_dvt_ate.git
+cd py_dvt_ate
+
+# Install with development dependencies
+pip install -e ".[dev]"
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Interactive Dashboard
+
+Launch the Streamlit dashboard to visualise the physics simulation and run tests:
+
+```bash
+py-dvt-ate dashboard
+```
+
+This opens a browser window with:
+- **Live Simulation** - Real-time temperature/voltage charts with physics coupling
+- **Test Execution** - Run TempCo characterisation tests
+- **Results Viewer** - Browse and analyse historical test results
+
+### CLI Commands
+
+```bash
+# Start the simulation server (TCP ports for SCPI instruments)
+py-dvt-ate serve
+
+# List available tests
+py-dvt-ate tests list
+
+# Run a TempCo test
+py-dvt-ate tests run tempco --config config/tempco_test.yaml
+```
+
+### Programmatic API
+
+```python
+from py_dvt_ate.instruments import InstrumentFactory
+from py_dvt_ate.simulation import SimulationServer
+
+# Start simulation server
+server = SimulationServer()
+server.start()
+
+# Create instruments via HAL
+factory = InstrumentFactory()
+instruments = factory.create_from_config("config/default.yaml")
+
+# Control instruments using standard interfaces
+instruments.chamber.set_temperature(85.0)
+instruments.psu.set_voltage(1, 5.0)
+instruments.psu.enable_output(1, True)
+voltage = instruments.dmm.measure_dc_voltage()
+
+print(f"Output voltage: {voltage:.4f} V")
+```

 ## Project Status
 
-**Status:** In Development
+**Status:** MVP Complete (v0.1.0)
 
-This project is currently being developed. See the requirements document for the full scope and success criteria.
+The core vertical slice is functional:
+- Physics engine with thermal-electrical coupling
+- Virtual instruments (chamber, PSU, DMM)
+- Hardware Abstraction Layer
+- SCPI-over-TCP server
+- Test framework with TempCo test
+- Streamlit dashboard
+- SQLite/Parquet data persistence
+
+See the requirements document for the full scope and future phases.
