+# Alert-Me Display
+
+A simple application for an
+[nRF52840](https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/nRF52840) microcontroller using
+[embassy](https://embassy.dev/).
+
+It consists of multiple parts:
+
+- Configuration interface leveraging BLE
+- Connect to WiFi in order subscribe to a configured MQTT topic
+- Show information on an LCD screen
+
+This is a learning environment, not a finished product.
+
+# Development
+
+## Nix
+
+If using the nix way as described in the [top-level readme](../README.md), no
+further dependencies need to be installed.
+
+## Manual Way

+In addition to the [top-level readme](../README.md) dependencies, the following
+has to be installed:
+
+- [probe-rs](https://probe.rs/docs/getting-started/installation/)
