+Monorepo at `gitlab.com/vikingowl/marktvogt.de`. Components are regular directories (not git submodules):
 
 - **`backend/`** — Go REST API + WebSocket (chat). PostgreSQL (+ PostGIS), Redis, S3 (self-hosted on itsh.dev).
 - **`web/`** — SvelteKit + Tailwind 4. SSR for SEO. Consumes the Go API.

 ## Current Status
 
-Project is in planning phase. The `app/`, `backend/`, and `web/` directories are empty placeholders. Start with `planning/17-roadmap.md` to understand the build order.
+Project is in active development as of 2026-04-18. `backend/`, `web/`, and `app/` contain working code (Go API scaffolding + auth, SvelteKit pages, Flutter iOS/Android skeleton). Refer to `planning/17-roadmap.md` for feature sequencing and `planning/15-mvp.md` for current MVP scope.
+
+Container registry is `registry.itsh.dev/vikingowl/marktvogt.de/{backend,web}` — a hosted Zot-backed registry that **requires attestations** on every pushed image. Builds must use buildx's `docker-container` driver (not the default `docker` driver). See `.gitlab-ci.yml` for the working pattern.
