Walkthrough

The README.md file was extensively rewritten to enhance clarity and focus. Key sections were restructured, value propositions were highlighted, package categories were updated, and visual explanations were simplified. Badges and historical notes were removed, and installation instructions were made more direct, with added quick links to documentation and a demo.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
README.md Rewrote and reorganized content: updated value propositions, package categories, visuals, links, and installation steps; removed badges, historical notes, and the "Utils" package.

Poem

A README refreshed, so crisp and bright,
With value and structure, just right!
Collectors up front, the journey made clear,
Install and explore—your data is near.
A hop, a skip, and off we go—
walkerOS shines, in README’s new glow!

Support

Need help? Create a ticket on our support page for assistance with any issues or questions.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

1-5: Add alt text to the logo image for accessibility
The <img> tag only provides a title; screen-readers will skip the logo altogether.

-    <img title="elbwalker" src='https://www.elbwalker.com/img/elbwalker_logo.png' width="256px"/>
+    <img
+      src="https://www.elbwalker.com/img/elbwalker_logo.png"
+      width="256px"
+      alt="elbwalker logo"
+    />

15-17: Shield badge also needs alt text
Same MD045 warning applies to the license badge.

-  <img src="https://img.shields.io/github/license/elbwalker/walkerOS" />
+  <img src="https://img.shields.io/github/license/elbwalker/walkerOS" alt="MIT license badge" />

9-14: Inline link list hurts scannability
Turning the quick-links into a bulleted list makes them easier to spot and prevents horizontal scrolling on small screens.

43-47: Installation section could confuse newcomers
“Install a collector” comes after links to sources; readers may not yet know the difference. Consider a short, explicit one-liner:

npm i @elbwalker/collector-browser (for client) / npm i @elbwalker/collector-node (for server)

A concrete command lowers the entry barrier.

⚠️ Potential issue

Diagram link is ephemeral – prefer a repo-local asset
user-attachments links break once the GitHub comment is deleted or the token expires. Store the image under docs/assets/ (or similar) and reference it relatively to guarantee longevity.

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In README.md around lines 37 to 40, the image link uses an ephemeral GitHub
user-attachments URL that can break over time. To fix this, download the image
and store it in a local directory such as docs/assets/, then update the markdown
to reference the image using a relative path to ensure the image remains
accessible permanently.
