+# Smart Notes – Landing Page UI Design
+
+## Overview
+This folder contains the UI/UX design exploration for the Smart Notes
+landing page. The goal is to visually communicate the app’s privacy-first,
+offline-by-default philosophy through a clean and focused interface.
+
+## Scope
+- Landing page UI design
+- No functional implementation included
+- Design-first contribution
+
+## Screens Included
+- Landing Page (Desktop)
+
+## Design Goals
+- Clear value proposition
+- Calm, distraction-free layout
+- Emphasis on privacy and offline usage
+- Developer-friendly design for easy implementation
+
+## Design Decisions
+- Minimal color palette
+- Bento-style feature cards
+- Strong visual hierarchy
+- Simple and focused navigation
+
+## Assets
+- `design/landing-page.png` – Landing page UI mockup
+
+## Status
+Initial design mock submitted for feedback and iteration.

+# Smart Notes – Local Q&A (RAG MVP)
+
+This is a minimal, local-first MVP that allows users to ask natural-language questions over their markdown notes.
+
+## Features (Current MVP)
+
+- Loads markdown files from a local `notes/` directory
+- Supports natural-language questions (e.g., "what is AI", "where is AI used")
+- Returns sentence-level answers from notes
+- Shows the source note filename
+- Interactive CLI loop (type `exit` to quit)
+
+This is a starter implementation intended to be extended with embeddings and vector search in future iterations.
+
+---
+
+## How it works
+
+1. Notes are loaded from the local `notes/` directory.
+2. Question words (what, where, who, when, etc.) are filtered.
+3. Notes are split into sentences.
+4. Relevant sentences are returned based on keyword matching.
+
+---
+
+## How to run
+
+```bash
+python smart-notes/rag_mvp/qa_cli.py
+
+
+
+>> what is AI
+
+[1] From test.md:
+Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the simulation of human intelligence in machines.

+# Smart Notes – RAG MVP (Embeddings & FAISS)
+
+This project is a simple **Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)** pipeline for Smart Notes.  
+It allows users to store notes, convert them into embeddings, and search relevant notes using vector similarity.
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Features
+
+- Convert notes into embeddings using Sentence Transformers
+- Store and search embeddings using FAISS (CPU)
+- CLI tool to ask questions about your notes
+- Simple chunking for text files
+- Works fully offline after model download
+
+---
+
+## 🧠 Tech Stack
+
+- Python 3.10+
+- sentence-transformers  
+- FAISS (faiss-cpu)  
+- HuggingFace Transformers
