+# Bot ready signaling
+
+A simple Pipecat example demonstrating how to handle signaling between the client and the bot, 
+ensuring that the bot starts sending audio only when the client is available, 
+thereby avoiding the risk of cutting off the beginning of the audio.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### First, start the bot server:
+
+1. Navigate to the server directory:
+   ```bash
+   cd server
+   ```
+2. Create and activate a virtual environment:
+   ```bash
+   python3 -m venv venv
+   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
+   ```
+3. Install requirements:
+   ```bash
+   pip install -r requirements.txt
+   ```
+4. Copy env.example to .env and configure:
+   - Add your API keys
+5. Start the server:
+   ```bash
+   python server.py
+   ```
+
+### Next, connect using the client app:
+
+For client-side setup, refer to the [JavaScript Guide](client/javascript/README.md).
+
+## Important Note
+
+Ensure the bot server is running before using any client implementations.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Python 3.10+
+- Node.js 16+ (for JavaScript)
+- Daily API key
+- Cartesia API key
+- Modern web browser with WebRTC support

+# Bot ready signaling Server
+
+A FastAPI server that manages bot instances and provide endpoint for Pipecat client connections.
+
+## Endpoints
+
+- `POST /connect` - Pipecat client connection endpoint
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+Copy `env.example` to `.env` and configure:
+
+```ini
+# Required API Keys
+DAILY_API_KEY=           # Your Daily API key
+CARTESIA_API_KEY=        # Your Cartesia API key
+
+# Optional Configuration
+DAILY_API_URL=           # Optional: Daily API URL (defaults to https://api.daily.co/v1)
+DAILY_SAMPLE_ROOM_URL=   # Optional: Fixed room URL for development
+HOST=                    # Optional: Host address (defaults to 0.0.0.0)
+FAST_API_PORT=           # Optional: Port number (defaults to 7860)
+```
+
+## Running the Server
+
+Set up and activate your virtual environment:
+
+```bash
+python3 -m venv venv
+source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
+```
+
+Install dependencies:
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+If you want to use the local version of `pipecat` in this repo rather than the last published version, also run:
+
+```bash
+pip install --editable "../../../[daily,cartesia]"
+```
+
+Run the server:
+
+```bash
+python server.py
+```
