+## 🍰 NEW: Integrated Slicing — Slice & Print, All In One Place
+
+**No desktop slicer required.** Drop an STL or 3MF into Bambuddy's File Manager, hit **Slice**, and the result lands as a ready-to-print `.gcode.3mf` in the same folder — without ever opening Bambu Studio or Orca Slicer.
+
+- 🍰 **One-click slicing** — Slice from any browser. The job runs server-side in a [tiny sidecar container](slicer-api/README.md), progress streams back as a toast, and the sliced file appears in your library when it's done.
+- 📱 **Slice from your phone or tablet** — Bambuddy's PWA + the new server-side slicer means you can drop an STL in from mobile and queue a print without ever touching a desktop.
+- 🎒 **Bring your own profiles** — Import a `Printer Preset Bundle` (`.bbscfg`) exported from Bambu Studio: pick a curated **printer + process + filament** triplet from a dropdown in the Slice dialog, no more juggling JSON files.
+- 🔁 **Same dispatch as the rest of Bambuddy** — The sliced output flows into the existing queue / plate-picker / AMS-mapping path, so all the regular conveniences (multi-printer dispatch, AMS routing, scheduled prints) just work.
+
+Optional but recommended — drop the [`slicer-api/` Compose stack](slicer-api/README.md) next to your Bambuddy install and the **Slice** button lights up everywhere.
