+A powerful CLI tool for bootstrapping Go APIs, frontend clients, and full-stack monorepos with best practices built-in. Draft helps you quickly scaffold production-ready projects — a standalone Go API, a standalone Nuxt/Vue client, or both wired together in a single monorepo.
 
 ## Features
 
-- 🚀 **Quick Project Scaffolding** - Generate complete API projects with a single command
+- 🚀 **Quick Project Scaffolding** - Generate complete projects with a single command
+- 🧩 **Three Project Shapes** - API only, client only, or a full-stack monorepo combining both
 - 🔄 **Multiple API Types** - Support for both HTTP (REST) and gRPC architectures
+- 🖼️ **Multiple Client Frameworks** - Nuxt or Vue, built on top of the official `nuxi`/`create-vue` tooling so the boilerplate always stays current
 - 📦 **Service Generation** - Easily create new services with proper structure
 - 🎯 **Handler Generation** - Generate HTTP or gRPC handlers on-demand
 - 🔐 **Cryptographic Key Generator** - Built-in secure key generation

 ## Usage
 
+### Create a New Project
+
+```bash
+draft new
+```
+
+Prompts you to pick a project shape — **API**, **Client**, or **Full Stack** (monorepo) — then runs the matching flow below. Each shape is also available directly as its own subcommand if you already know what you want.

 - `swag` - Swagger documentation (HTTP only)
 - `protoc-gen-*` - Protocol Buffer generators (gRPC only)
 
+### Create a New Client Project
+
+```bash
+draft new client
+```
+
+1. Prompts for a project name
+2. Prompts you to pick a framework — **Nuxt** or **Vue**
+3. Scaffolds the base app via the official tooling (`nuxi init` for Nuxt, `create-vue` + `shadcn-vue` for Vue), so the generated boilerplate, dependency versions, and lockfile are always current rather than pinned by Draft
+4. Layers a Draft-maintained overlay on top: an auth store (login/logout/register/token refresh), route guards, API composable, and pages for login/signup/profile/organizations/email verification/invites — all wired up to talk to a Draft-generated API out of the box
+
+Both frameworks produce a comparable app: Nuxt UI + Tailwind for Nuxt, shadcn-vue + Tailwind for Vue.
+
+### Create a New Monorepo Project
+
+```bash
+draft new monorepo
+```
+
+Runs the API flow and the client flow together under one root, wired up as a single project:
+- `apps/api` — the scaffolded Go API
+- `apps/client` — the scaffolded Nuxt or Vue client
+- Root-level `go.work`, `pnpm-workspace.yaml`, `docker-compose.yml`, and `Justfile` tying both together
