 # 🛠️ KemonoDownloader Refactor Notes
 
-## Overview
+## What's Going On
 
-The project was previously a large monolithic App Script, which made it difficult to maintain and scale. This version introduces a cleaner and more modular file structure to improve readability, separation of concerns, and future extensibility.
+This project used to be one giant messy App Script. It worked, but it was hard to maintain or expand. So I cleaned it up and split everything into smaller, more manageable files to make it easier to read, update, and add new stuff later.
 
-**⚠️ Note:** Due to the ongoing refactor, some features may not work as expected. The code has been reorganized into a more maintainable layout, but certain logic or dependencies might still require updates to fully function in this new structure.
+**⚠️ Heads up:** Since I'm still in the middle of refactoring things, some features might be broken or not working right now. The layout is better, but I still need to update some parts of the logic and dependencies.

-## ✅ Goals of This Refactor
+## ✅ Why Bother Refactoring?
 
-- Improve **modularity** and make each component responsible for a specific domain.
+- Everything’s now broken into smaller parts, so it’s easier to work with.
-- Enable easier **testing**, debugging, and maintenance.
+- Easier to test, fix, and add stuff.
-- Prepare the codebase for future **feature expansion**.
+- Prepping the project to grow without becoming a mess again.
-- Make UI and business logic **loosely coupled**.
+- Separated the UI from the app logic so they don’t get tangled.
 
 ---
 
-## 🚧 Known Issues
+## 🚧 What’s Still Broken
 
-- Some features are currently broken or untested in this structure.
+- Some features don’t work yet or haven’t been tested since the changes.
-- Further work is required to:
+- Still need to:
-  - Hook up UI components with new logic paths.
+  - Reconnect the UI to the updated logic.
-  - Validate and migrate old script logic into proper services/core modules.
+  - Move over some of the old script code into proper modules.
-  - Ensure settings and cookies persist correctly through the new configuration and data layers.
+  - Make sure settings and cookies work properly in the new setup.
 
 ---
 
-## 📌 Next Steps
+## 📌 To-Do List
 
-- Review and test all dialogs and UI flows.
+- Test all the dialogs and UI stuff.
-- Validate downloader services and API integrations.
+- Make sure the download services and API calls are working.
-- Reconnect UI with backend logic through the `core/manager.py`.
+- Reconnect the UI with the new logic in `core/manager.py`.
-- Add unit tests and logging as needed.
+- Add more logging and maybe some unit tests too.

-## 📣 Found a Bug or Issue?
+## 🐞 Found a Bug?
 
-If you find something broken or not working as expected:
+If something's busted:
 
-- **Open an issue** on the repository so it can be tracked.
+- Feel free to open an issue if you're using this.
-- Or **let me know directly** — feedback is super helpful during this refactor!
+- Or just message me. Feedback helps a lot while I’m still figuring things out.
 
-Thanks for your patience and support during this restructuring!
+Thanks for checking it out! Still a work in progress, but getting there.
