LRX Documentation
=====================================

Core Concepts

  lrx is built around three principles:

  1. Composability
     Every command is a Unix-friendly tool.
     Pipe, redirect, chain freely.

     lrx list | grep "*.md" | lrx process

  2. Speed
     Written in Rust. Startup time <5ms.
     Process 10k files in under a second.

     # Benchmark results (M2 MacBook Pro):
     lrx scan .    0.003s  (10,482 files)
     lrx build     0.847s  (full project)
     lrx deploy    1.204s  (to production)

  3. Zero Config
     Works out of the box. No config files
     required. Sensible defaults everywhere.

     # Optional: create .lrxrc for overrides
     lrx config init

|    - Composable interfaces over monoliths      |
|    - Speed as a feature                        |
|    - Sensible defaults, infinite config         |
|    - Terminal-first, always                     |

# Built with care by developers, for developers.

Configuration
=====================================

  lrx uses a layered config system:

  1. Defaults     Built-in sensible defaults
  2. Global       ~/.config/lrx/config.toml
  3. Project      ./.lrxrc
  4. Environment  LRX_* env variables
  5. CLI flags    --flag overrides everything

  # Example .lrxrc configuration:

  [general]
  verbose = false
  color   = true
  threads = 4

  [scan]
  ignore  = ["node_modules", ".git", "dist"]
  depth   = 10

  [deploy]
  target  = "production"
  confirm = true

# Run `lrx config init` to generate a default
# config file for your project.
