+## Testing scopes with Keycloak
+
+Quick path to test `@ScopesAllowed` end-to-end:
+
+1. **Create a client scope**
+   - Realm -> Client scopes -> Create
+   - Name: `orders:write` (or any scope name you want to enforce)
+2. **Attach it to your client**
+   - Clients -> `<your-client>` -> Client scopes
+   - Add the scope as `Default` (always in token) or `Optional` (requested via `scope` param)
+3. **Ensure scope mapper reaches the token**
+   - For most Keycloak setups this is automatic via built-in `microprofile-jwt`/scope mappers
+   - Verify the access token contains either `scope` string or `scp` list
+4. **Request the scope in Flash config**
+   - Include it in `OidcConfig.scopes(...)`, e.g. `"openid profile email orders:write"`
+5. **Protect a handler**
+   - `@ScopesAllowed("orders:write")` on class-based handlers
+   - or `oidc.requireScopes("orders:write")` for lambda routes
+6. **Verify behavior**
+   - token with scope -> 200
+   - token without scope -> 403 + `WWW-Authenticate: ... insufficient_scope`
+
+Useful token inspection flow while testing:
+
+- Obtain a token from Keycloak
+- Decode payload (`jwt.io` or local tool)
+- check `scope` / `scp` claims
+- call your protected endpoint and inspect status + `WWW-Authenticate`

- * Installs the view layer into a Flash application.

- * detects dev mode for cache settings, and validates classpath dependencies at boot:
- * <pre>{@code
- * app.install(new ViewExtension(ViewEngineType.THYMELEAF));

- *
- * <h3>What gets installed</h3>
- * <ol>
- *   <li>{@link ViewEngine} and {@link Renderer} are bound in the {@link FlashContext} —
- *       any handler can retrieve them via {@code require(Renderer.class)}.</li>
- *   <li>An {@link dev.relism.extension.AnnotationProcessor} is registered: class-based
- *       handlers carrying {@link View @View} receive an injected rendering middleware
- *       that intercepts the handler return value, resolves the template + model, and
- *       delegates to the engine. No boilerplate required in the handler itself.</li>
- * </ol>
- *
- * <h3>Handler patterns</h3>
- * <pre>{@code
- * // Declarative — annotation drives template selection
- * @Route(method = HttpMethod.GET, path = "/")
- * @View("home")
- * public class HomeHandler extends RequestHandler {
- *     public Object handle(Request req, Response res) {

- *         return data;                                // falls back to list.html
- *     }

- *
- * // Imperative — explicit render call (lambda-friendly)
- * Renderer renderer = app.ctx().require(Renderer.class);
- * app.get("/about", (req, res) -> renderer.view(res, "about"));
- * }</pre>

+`flash-web-bundler` integrates frontend tooling lifecycle into Flash with explicit, policy-driven behavior.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```java
+FlashApp.create(8080)
+    .install(new WebBundlerExtension(
+        WebBundlerConfig.builder()
+            .webRoot(Path.of("web"))
+            .basePath("/")
+            .build()
+    ))
+    .start();
+```
+
+## Operating Model
+
+- Dev: orchestrates frontend process lifecycle and health checks.
+- Prod: serves prebuilt assets from `assetsSource` with ETag/cache/compression support.
+- Route precedence: backend first, SPA fallback second (`GET`/`HEAD`).
+
+See also: `asset-sources.md`.
