+
+## Development
+
+1. Install dependencies:
+```bash
+npm install
+```
+
+2. Start the development server:
+```bash
+npm run dev
+```
+
+3. Build for production:
+```bash
+npm run build
+```
+
+## Authentication Methods
+
+The application supports multiple authentication methods:
+
+1. **Nostr Extension**
+   - Uses browser extensions like Alby for seamless authentication
+   - Automatically retrieves the user's public key
+
+2. **Manual Entry**
+   - Users can manually input their npub or hex public key
+   - Supports both formats for maximum flexibility
+
+3. **URL-based Authentication**
+   - Automatically logs in using URL parameters
+   - Supports both `npub` and `pubkey` parameters
+   - Example URLs:
+     ```
+     https://your-domain.com?npub=npub1...
+     https://your-domain.com?pubkey=abc123...
+     ```
+
+## Iframe Integration
+
+The application supports iframe embedding with a clean interface. Add `?iframe=1` to the URL to:
+- Hide header and footer
+- Show a logout button on the dashboard
+- Maintain a minimal interface
+
+Example:
+```html
+<iframe src="https://your-relay-domain.com?iframe=1" width="100%" height="600px"></iframe>
+```
+
+You can combine iframe mode with URL-based authentication:
+```html
+<iframe src="https://your-relay-domain.com?iframe=1&npub=npub1..." width="100%" height="600px"></iframe>
+```
