+**CAUTION** This repo is no longer active and will be deleted in the next weeks.
 
-C/C++ library for Diagnostics over IP (DoIP) (fork from [https://github.com/AVL-DiTEST-DiagDev/libdoip](https://github.com/AVL-DiTEST-DiagDev/libdoip))
+Since the code changed significantly and the fork evolved into a different direction than originally anticipated, the work
+is continued in repo [doip-server](<https://github.com/Magolves/doip-server>), focusing on **server-side DoIP implementation** rather than client functionality.
 
-**CAUTION** The current API is under construction any may change at any time.
+## Current Status
 
-## Dependencies
-
-`libdoip` uses `spdlog`. The lib is downloaded automatically. Or you may install it locally via
-
-```bash
-# Install Doxygen and Graphviz
-sudo apt install libspdlog-dev
-```
-
-See [Logging](./doc/LOGGING.md) for details.
-
-### Getting started
-
-Quick start — read the generated tutorial for the example server:
-
-- Online (published): [https://magolves.github.io/libdoip/index.html](https://magolves.github.io/libdoip/index.html)
-- Local example page: see `doc/ExampleDoIPServer.md` (included in the Doxygen HTML under "Example DoIP Server Tutorial").
-- Example tutorial (direct): [https://magolves.github.io/libdoip/md_doc_ExampleDoIPServer.html](https://magolves.github.io/libdoip/md_doc_ExampleDoIPServer.html)
-
-If you want to generate the docs locally, install Doxygen and Graphviz and
-run:
-
-```bash
-sudo apt install doxygen graphviz
-doxygen Doxyfile
-xdg-open docs/html/index.html
-```
-
-### Installing library for Diagnostics over IP
-
-1. To install the library on the system, first get the source files with:
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/Magolves/libdoip.git
-```
-
-1. Enter the directory 'libdoip' and build the library with:
-
-```bash
-cmake . -Bbuild
-cd build
-make
-```
-
-1. To install the library into `/usr/lib/libdoip` use:
-
-```bash
-sudo make install
-```
-
-### Installing doctest
-
-```bash
-sudo apt install doctest
-```
-
-## Debugging
-
-### Dump UDP
-
-```bash
-sudo tcpdump -i any udp port 13400 -X
-```
-
-## Examples
-
-The project includes a small example DoIP server demonstrating how to
-use the `DoIPServer` and `DoIPServerModel` APIs and how to register UDS
-handlers.
-
-- Example source files: `examples/exampleDoIPServer.cpp`,
-  `examples/ExampleDoIPServerModel.h`
-- Example tutorial: [https://magolves.github.io/libdoip/ExampleDoIPServer.html](https://magolves.github.io/libdoip/ExampleDoIPServer.html)
-
-See the "Examples" section in the generated Doxygen main page for
-additional annotated links to these files.
