+# Build Caching in Nano-Remix
+
+The nano-remix package now includes intelligent build caching to improve performance by avoiding unnecessary rebuilds.
+
+## How it Works
+
+The caching system tracks:
+
+- File modification timestamps
+- Last build times
+- Output file existence
+
+Routes are only rebuilt when:
+
+1. Source files have been modified since last build
+2. Output files don't exist
+3. Cache is explicitly disabled or forced
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Development Mode (with caching)
+
+```typescript
+import { nanoRemix } from "@workshop/nano-remix"
+
+// Default behavior - uses intelligent caching
+export default {
+  fetch: (req: Request) => nanoRemix(req),
+}
+```
+
+### Development Mode (without caching)
+
+```typescript
+import { nanoRemix } from "@workshop/nano-remix"
+
+// Disable caching for development if you want immediate rebuilds
+export default {
+  fetch: (req: Request) =>
+    nanoRemix(req, {
+      disableCache: true,
+    }),
+}
+```
+
+### Production Setup
+
+```typescript
+import { nanoRemix, preloadAllRoutes } from "@workshop/nano-remix"
+
+// Pre-build all routes on startup for production
+const server = {
+  async fetch(req: Request) {
+    return nanoRemix(req)
+  },
+}
+
+// Build all routes once on server startup
+await preloadAllRoutes()
+
+export default server
+```
+
+### Cache Management
+
+```typescript
+import { clearBuildCache, getBuildCacheStats } from "@workshop/nano-remix"
+
+// Clear cache (useful for development)
+clearBuildCache()
+
+// Get cache statistics for monitoring
+const stats = getBuildCacheStats()
+console.log("Cache entries:", stats.length)
+```
+
+## Configuration Options
+
+```typescript
+type Options = {
+  routesDir?: string // Custom routes directory
+  distDir?: string // Custom output directory
+  disableCache?: boolean // Disable caching entirely
+}
+```
+
+## Performance Impact
+
+With caching enabled:
+
+- ✅ First request to a route: Normal build time
+- ✅ Subsequent requests: Near-instant response (no rebuild)
+- ✅ File changes: Automatic rebuild on next request
+- ✅ Production: Pre-build all routes once
+
+This should significantly improve your server performance, especially for routes that haven't changed!
