From the operator's request for a review of all READMEs, relayed by the watchman.

  • Removes the IMPORTANT callout between the intro and Layout.
  • Adds ## Status after "Try it":
    • What's done: built and tested end to end on simulated sensors, with CI running every test, including the PostGIS ones. 11 of 17 roadmap stories are done, and the web update is the only part tried on a reTerminal.
    • What's next on hardware: GPS and chrony, RTL-SDR with Direwolf, Wi-Fi and the hotspot, the SD-card image, and offline maps with the network actually off.
  • Keeps the "Real UI on simulated sensors" caption under the screenshots.

Nothing in it claims more than the callout did. It doesn't pin a commit hash, because the hash would go stale on merge. At the time of writing, main was at 1295e27 with CI green.

Proposed repository description, for the operator to set: "Raspberry Pi car computer: drive tracking with SmartBeaconing, APRS alerts over RTL-SDR, offline maps, a touchscreen and web UI. Rust + PostGIS + Svelte. Built on simulators; hardware trials next." I haven't changed it.

Tested: docs only. The section headings render in order: Try it, Status, Install on a Pi.

The opening now leads with what CarChomp does. What has and hasn't run
on real hardware moves, unchanged in substance, to a Status section
after Try it.
