**Goal:** Progress Phase 1 of Chatterbox TTS backend migration: Initial Project Setup.

**Key Activities & Insights:**
- Created `backend/app/main.py` with a basic FastAPI application instance.
- Confirmed user has an existing `.venv` at the project root.
- Updated `backend/README.md` to reflect usage of the root `.venv` instead of a backend-specific one.
    - Adjusted venv activation paths and command execution locations (project root).
- Installed backend dependencies from `backend/requirements.txt` into the root `.venv`.
- Successfully ran the basic FastAPI server using `uvicorn backend.app.main:app --reload --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000` from the project root.
- Verified the API is accessible.
- Confirmed all Memory Bank files are present. Reviewed `current_focus.md` and `session_log.md`.

**Next Steps:**
- Update `current_focus.md` and `session_log.md`.
- Proceed to Phase 1, Step 2: Speaker Management.
