Conversation
…FAQs - README Quick Start: after the format check, advertise the synth-lib backtester (accuracy benchmark) with a minimal example; new §2.1.4 stub. - miner_tutorial: new §2.3 'Backtest your model' (former §2.3-2.9 renumbered to §2.4-2.10); §2.1 orientation bullets (3 competitions, response-format pointer); §2.2 real run.py output + single-prompt caveat; drop the obsolete deadsnakes Python install (uv provisions Python); fix the miner.local.config.js inconsistency in §3.5.1. - miner_reference: FAQ #2/#3/#5 generalized to all three competitions (per-competition points table); new FAQ #13 pointing at the backtester; netuid doc states 50 = mainnet / 247 = testnet.

What
Rework of the miner getting-started journey: the docs now advertise the open-source synth-lib backtester and reflect the 3-competition model throughout.
README

--netuid: states 50 = mainnet, 247 = testnet.Verification
Ran the exact documented backtest command from a fresh synth-lib clone — completes and writes charts (chart fix on macOS: synthdataco/synth-lib#17). Cross-repo anchors verified. Website counterpart: synthdataco/synth-landing-replit#30.
