-# FastAPI Application
+# RESTAPIService
 
-This is a FastAPI application bootstrapped by BackendIM, the AI-powered backend generation platform.
+A RESTful API service built with FastAPI and SQLite.
+
+## Features
+
+- FastAPI framework for high-performance API development
+- SQLite database with SQLAlchemy ORM
+- Alembic for database migrations
+- JWT authentication with role-based access control
+- Comprehensive user management API
+- Health check endpoint
+- Documentation with OpenAPI (Swagger UI and ReDoc)
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Python 3.8+
+- Virtual environment (recommended)
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+The application uses the following environment variables:
+
+| Variable                    | Description                           | Default Value      |
+|-----------------------------|---------------------------------------|--------------------|
+| SECRET_KEY                  | Secret key for JWT token generation   | supersecretkey     |
+| ACCESS_TOKEN_EXPIRE_MINUTES | Token expiration time in minutes      | 30                 |
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Clone the repository:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/yourusername/restapiservice.git
+cd restapiservice
+```
+
+2. Create and activate a virtual environment:
+
+```bash
+python -m venv venv
+source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
+```
+
+3. Install dependencies:
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+4. Run database migrations:
+
+```bash
+alembic upgrade head
+```
+
+5. Initialize the database with initial data:
+
+```bash
+python -m app.initial_data
+```
+
+## Running the Application
+
+Start the application with uvicorn:
+
+```bash
+uvicorn main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --reload
+```
+
+The API will be available at http://localhost:8000
+
+## API Documentation
+
+- Swagger UI: http://localhost:8000/docs
+- ReDoc: http://localhost:8000/redoc
+- OpenAPI JSON: http://localhost:8000/openapi.json
+
+## API Endpoints
+
+### Root Endpoint
+
+- `GET /`: Returns basic information about the API
+
+### Health Check
+
+- `GET /health`: Returns the health status of the application
+
+### Authentication
+
+- `POST /api/v1/auth/login`: Authenticate and get access token
+- `POST /api/v1/auth/test-token`: Test if a token is valid
+
+### Users
+
+- `GET /api/v1/users/`: List all users (admin only)
+- `POST /api/v1/users/`: Create a new user (admin only)
+- `GET /api/v1/users/me`: Get current user information
+- `PUT /api/v1/users/me`: Update current user information
+- `GET /api/v1/users/{user_id}`: Get user by ID (admin only)
+- `PUT /api/v1/users/{user_id}`: Update user by ID (admin only)
+
+## Development
+
+### Database Migrations
+
+To create a new migration after modifying models:
+
+```bash
+alembic revision --autogenerate -m "description"
+```
+
+To apply migrations:
+
+```bash
+alembic upgrade head
+```
+
+### Code Style
+
+This project uses Ruff for linting and formatting:
+
+```bash
+ruff check .
+ruff format .
+```
