-# FastAPI Application
+# QuickSimpleAPI
 
-This is a FastAPI application bootstrapped by BackendIM, the AI-powered backend generation platform.
+A quick and simple FastAPI application with SQLite database. This project provides a simple CRUD API for managing items.
+
+## Features
+
+- FastAPI framework with automatic API documentation
+- SQLite database integration
+- SQLAlchemy ORM
+- Alembic migrations
+- CORS support
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Python 3.8+
+- FastAPI
+- SQLAlchemy
+- Alembic
+- Uvicorn
+- Pydantic
+
+## Getting Started
+
+### Installation
+
+1. Clone the repository:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/yourusername/quicksimpleapi.git
+cd quicksimpleapi
+```
+
+2. Install dependencies:
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+3. Run database migrations:
+
+```bash
+alembic upgrade head
+```
+
+4. Start the application:
+
+```bash
+uvicorn main:app --reload
+```
+
+The API will be available at `http://localhost:8000`.
+
+## API Documentation
+
+Once the application is running, you can access the API documentation at:
+
+- Swagger UI: `http://localhost:8000/docs`
+- ReDoc: `http://localhost:8000/redoc`
+
+## API Endpoints
+
+### Root Endpoint
+
+- `GET /`: Returns basic information about the API.
+
+### Health Check
+
+- `GET /health`: Returns the health status of the API.
+
+### Items API
+
+- `GET /api/v1/items`: Retrieve a list of items.
+- `POST /api/v1/items`: Create a new item.
+- `GET /api/v1/items/{item_id}`: Retrieve an item by ID.
+- `PUT /api/v1/items/{item_id}`: Update an item.
+- `DELETE /api/v1/items/{item_id}`: Delete an item.
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+The following environment variables can be set:
+
+- `SECRET_KEY`: Secret key for security. Default is "development_secret_key".
