+# IB Dashboard
+
+Simple Interactive Brokers dashboard using vanilla JavaScript frontend and a small Python backend.
+
+Requirements
+- Python 3.8+
+- IB Gateway or TWS running locally on port 7496
+
+Install
+
+```bash
+python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+Run
+
+```bash
+python backend/app.py
+# then open http://127.0.0.1:8000 in your browser
+```
+
+Usage
+- Enter symbols (comma-separated) and click Subscribe.
+- The page polls for quotes and positions every second.
+
+Notes and limitations
+- This is a minimal example. It uses polling rather than websockets or SSE.
+- The backend relies on `ibapi` to talk to the local IB Gateway/TWS. Make sure the gateway is configured to accept API connections.
