Add README with instructions for adding it on our server?

[dmxt]

• README.md added

• LICENSE added

• Viable instructions added (with a readme or wiki)

How can we help?

Some of us want to contribute by adding the library to our server but I've only dealt with more typical server languages like Node.JS or PHP.

I don't have any experience with this langiage and I couldn't find a manual or guide on adding it to my VPS server.

Also this repository isn't licensed, therefore it's copyrighted.

README.md

I think adding a handbook would overwhelming increase the assistance from people who discovered this gem. Or maybe there's a manual. I don't know, a readme would be a great place to start with.

GitHub Wiki

If it's complicated, consider enabling GitHub wiki. The community can contribute to the wiki at their will. Documenting a repository with a wiki

License

A repo need a license, otherwise it's copywrited with no permission to copy and stuff like that. Learn about licensing repository.

This project is still very early in the development, it's more a proof of concept rather than a usable application yet. I plan to give it more attention as soon as I finish working on LibgenDesktop: https://github.com/libgenapps/LibgenDesktop.

Also this repository isn't licensed, therefore it's copyrighted.

Do you have a suggestion for a license supported by the GitHub that would be similar to public domain license?

I remember reading somewhere (probably here) that Unlicense has some issues.

@libgenapps This is a great resource for choosing which license to use: https://choosealicense.com/

I agree.
I'm still not sure if this server is the API that liben.is (and others) use, or if it is a separate project.
