+# KV-Tube
+
+A modern, fast, and fully-featured YouTube-like video streaming platform. Built with a robust Go backend and a highly responsive Next.js frontend, KV-Tube is designed for seamless deployment on systems like Synology NAS via Docker.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Modern Video Player**: High-resolution video playback with HLS support and quality selection.
+- **Infinite Scrolling**: Scroll seamlessly through a dynamic video grid on the homepage.
+- **Watch History & Suggestions**: Keep track of what you've watched, with smart video suggestions.
+- **Region Selection**: Tailor your content to specific regions (e.g., Vietnam).
+- **Responsive Design**: Beautiful, mobile-friendly interface with light and dark theme support.
+- **Containerized**: Fully Dockerized for easy setup using `docker-compose`.
+
+## Architecture
+- **Backend**: Go (Gin framework), SQLite for watch history, optimized for `linux/amd64`.
+- **Frontend**: Next.js utilizing React Server Components and standalone output for minimal container footprint.
+
+## Deployment on Synology NAS
+
+We recommend using Docker Compose for simple and robust deployment.
+
+### 1. Prerequisites
+- Docker and Container Manager installed on your Synology NAS.
+- Make sure ports `5011` are free, or adjust `docker-compose.yml` to fit your needs.
+
+### 2. Setup
+
+Create a `docker-compose.yml` file matching the one provided in the repository:
+
+```yaml
+version: '3.8'
+
+services:
+  kv-tube-backend:
+    image: git.khoavo.myds.me/vndangkhoa/kv-tube-backend:v4.0.0
+    container_name: kv-tube-backend
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    volumes:
+      - ./data:/app/data
+    environment:
+      - KVTUBE_DATA_DIR=/app/data
+      - GIN_MODE=release
+    healthcheck:
+      test: [ "CMD", "curl", "-f", "http://localhost:8080/api/health" ]
+      interval: 30s
+      timeout: 10s
+      retries: 3
+      start_period: 10s
+
+  kv-tube-frontend:
+    image: git.khoavo.myds.me/vndangkhoa/kv-tube-frontend:v4.0.0
+    container_name: kv-tube-frontend
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    ports:
+      - "5011:3000"
+    depends_on:
+      - kv-tube-backend
+```
+
+### 3. Run
+In the directory containing your `docker-compose.yml`, run:
+
+```bash
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+The application will be accessible at `http://<your-nas-ip>:5011`.
+
+## Development
+
+- Frontend builds can be started in `frontend/` via `npm run dev`.
+- Backend server starts in `backend/` via `go run main.go`.
