+# LS Vector
+
+Minimal, single-header dynamic array (vector) for C.
+
+- Type-safe via macro code generation (not macro function calls)
+- ANSI C
+- Header-only
+- Dynamic resizing with configurable growth factor
+- Configurable memory allocators
+- Full memory management with overflow protection
+
+## Quick Start
+
+1. Copy `ls_vec.h` to your project.
+2. Define any number of vector types:
+    ```c
+    LS_VEC_INLINE(int, int_vector)
+    ```
+
+    **OR** for separate declaration/implementation:
+
+    ```c
+    // In header:
+    LS_VEC_DECL(int, int_vector)
+
+    // In source file:
+    LS_VEC_IMPL(int, int_vector)
+    ```
+3. Use the vector with normal C function calls:
+    ```c
+    int_vector vec;
+    int_vector_init(&vec);
+    if (!int_vector_push(&vec, 42)) {
+        // push failed, allocation failure, handle that here
+    }
+    // Access elements via vec.data[i]
+    // Check size via vec.size
+    int_vector_clear(&vec);
+    ```
+
+See [`ls_vec.h`](ls_vec.h) for detailed documentation and usage patterns.
+
+## Custom Memory Allocators
+
+Configure custom allocators by defining these macros before including the header:
+
+```c
+#define LS_REALLOC my_realloc
+#define LS_FREE my_free
+#include "ls_vec.h"
+```
+
+The allocators must behave exactly like standard `realloc` and `free`.
+
+See [`ls_vec.h`](ls_vec.h) for detailed documentation and usage patterns.
