+Redis Hash Operations
+======================
+
+Demonstrates working with Redis hashes -- lightweight dictionaries stored
+under a single key.  Common use-cases include user profiles, product
+catalogs, and session data.
+
+Commands covered:
+  - HSET / HGET / HGETALL
+  - HMGET for fetching multiple fields
+  - HINCRBY for atomic field increments
+  - HDEL / HEXISTS / HKEYS / HVALS
+
+Prerequisites:
+  pip install redis
+
+  A running Redis server (default: localhost:6379).
+  Start one with Docker:
+    docker run -d -p 6379:6379 redis
