Updated the README.md from a generic SvelteKit template to comprehensive documentation that properly describes the Sinking Funds Manager application and provides complete setup instructions.

Changes Made

Replaced generic content with:

  • Clear explanation of what the application is: A gamified personal finance app for managing "sinking funds" (dedicated savings categories)
  • Detailed description of sinking funds concept and benefits
  • Complete feature list based on the project specification, including gamification elements, fund management, transactions, and reporting
  • Technology stack documentation (SvelteKit, Skeleton UI, Prisma, SQLite, etc.)

Added comprehensive setup instructions:

  • Prerequisites (Node.js requirements)
  • Step-by-step installation guide
  • Database setup with Prisma commands
  • Development server startup instructions
  • All available npm scripts (dev, build, format, lint, etc.)
  • Database management commands

Included project structure overview:

  • Explanation of key directories and files
  • Route organization for different application features
  • Database schema and migration locations

Added development guidelines:

  • Usage instructions for new users
  • Contributing workflow
  • Current development status notes

The instructions have been tested and verified - the development server starts successfully at http://localhost:5173 and the build process completes without errors.

Also included minor code formatting improvements via Prettier to maintain consistent code style.

Fixes #15.
