-**ThermalATE: Coupled Physics DVT Simulation Platform**
+**Coupled Physics DVT Simulation Platform**
 
-A software simulation environment that accurately models the physical coupling between thermal and electrical domains, enabling DVT (Design Validation Test) engineers to develop, validate, and debug characterisation test sequences without physical access to laboratory equipment.
+A software simulation environment for offline development of ATE (Automated Test Equipment) characterisation algorithms. Accurately models thermal-electrical coupling, enabling DVT engineers to develop and validate test sequences without physical laboratory access.
 
 ## Overview
 
-ThermalATE enables offline development of ATE (Automated Test Equipment) characterisation algorithms by simulating:
+py_dvt_ate simulates a complete DVT test bench:
 
 - **Thermal Chamber** - Temperature control with realistic ramp and settling behaviour
 - **Programmable Power Supply** - Voltage/current control and measurement

+## Installation
+
+```bash
+# 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.
