 # ResearchX Frontend

+**TL;DR** — This is the ResearchX web interface: ask a question, choose a research method, approve the plan, watch the live trace, read the cited report. The prototype runs entirely on scripted sample data — no API keys, no backend, no network — so the full product journey is tryable today.
+
+- **What** — A Next.js app (ask, choose, run, report, library, settings) rendering mock data through one typed client interface.
+- **Why** — The journey is checkable end-to-end before live inference exists.
+- **Action** — no action — FYI. Developers: Quickstart below (Node 20+, pnpm).
+- **Details** — Root `README.md`: backend engine, live mode, architecture.
+
 The prototype frontend for ResearchX — methodology-driven deep research
 with a trust loop. This milestone (v0.1) runs **entirely on mock data**:
 no API keys, no env vars, no network calls beyond static assets.
