# Comprehensive Rebranding to "Application Engine" (Phase 3)

Systematically replace remaining "framework" references with "engine", "platform", or "system" in the `learn/` directory (excluding `blog/`) to fully align with the rebranding.

**Critical Context Rule:**
- **Neo.mjs**: Use "Engine", "Platform", or "System".
- **Competitors (React/Angular/Vue)**: Keep "Framework" or "Library".
- **Both/General**: Use "Architectures", "Solutions", or "Toolsets".

**Focus Areas (Top 10 Remaining):**
1.  `learn/comparisons/NeoVsReact.md` (8 matches)
2.  `learn/benefits/ConfigSystem.md` (8 matches)
3.  `learn/guides/fundamentals/ApplicationBootstrap.md` (7 matches)
