Write user-facing and developer-facing documentation for Shanty.

  1. User documentation:

    • Installation guide (from source, Docker, binary releases)
    • Configuration reference (all config options explained)
    • Quick start guide (get from zero to playing music)
    • FAQ
  2. Developer documentation:

    • Architecture overview (crate structure, data flow)
    • Contributing guide (how to set up the dev environment, coding standards, PR process)
    • API documentation (REST API reference for the web backend)
  3. Inline documentation:

    • Rustdoc comments on all public types and functions
    • cargo doc --workspace should produce useful documentation

Acceptance Criteria

  • README covers installation, quick start, and basic usage
  • Configuration reference documents all options
  • Architecture doc explains the crate structure and how they interact
  • Contributing guide exists
  • REST API is documented (consider using OpenAPI/Swagger)
  • cargo doc produces clean documentation with no warnings

Dependencies

  • Most other MVP issues (documentation should reflect implemented features)
