Optimizing README discoverability
A README that clearly signals a repository's purpose so search results and preview snippets show the right title, badges, and first lines.
"I want someone scrolling search results to know instantly what this repo does without opening it."
Arrange the repo title, badges, and the first one or two sentences so search indexes and GitHub listing snippets surface the most important facts: what it does, who it's for, and its status.
