+# Contributing to Logarion
+
+Logarions primary aim is to create a note system, which doesn't waste resources.
+The secondary aim is to provide an exemplary OCaml project to demonstrate and promote the language (as it happens with many other "Blogging" systems written in other languages).
+
+As part of the secondary aim, the source code needs to written in a way that encourages the language's adoption and the participation to the OCaml developer community.
+
+## Starting with OCaml
+
+_"OCaml is an industrial strength programming language supporting functional, imperative and object-oriented styles"_ -- https://ocaml.org/
+
+OCaml simply rocks.
+
+If you are unfamiliar with OCaml, consider starting with these resources:
+
+- Install OCaml: https://ocaml.org/docs/install.html
+- Read about OCaml: https://ocaml.org/learn/books.html
+- Ask questions & join the community:
+  - Mailing lists: https://ocaml.org/community/
+  - IRC: irc://irc.freenode.net/#ocaml (Web client: https://riot.im/app/#/room/#freenode_#ocaml:matrix.org )
+  - Reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/ocaml/
+  - Discourse: https://discuss.ocaml.org/
+  - .. other: https://ocaml.org/community/
+
+## Design principles
+
+[Unix philosophy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_philosophy#Do_One_Thing_and_Do_It_Well)
+
+1. System simplicity & interoperability.
+2. Output quality.
+3. Distributed interactivity, like sharing with friends.
+
+## Developing & contributing
+
+### Clone
+
+```
+git clone https://cgit.orbitalfox.eu/logarion/
+```
+
+Install dependencies:
+
+```
+cd logarion
+pin add logarion . -n
+opam depext --install logarion
+```
+
+Build the project:
+
+```
+dune build src/logarion.exe
+```
+
+This will create `_build/default/src/logarion.exe` (the command line interface).
+
+### Project structure
+
+There are three layers:
+
+- notes 
+- archive 
+- interfaces & intermediate formats
+
+### Core
+
+- `logarion.ml`: repository related functions (listing, adding/removing, etc). ([src/logarion.ml](https://gitlab.com/orbifx/logarion/blob/master/src/logarion.ml))
+- `note.ml`: parsing from and to note files. ([src/note.ml](https://gitlab.com/orbifx/logarion/blob/master/src/note.ml))
+
+### Intermediate formats
+
+Converters:
+
+- `html.ml`: archive to HTML pages.
+- `atom.ml`: archive to Atom feeds.
+
+### Servers & utilities
+
+Logarion's archives can be served over various protocols using servers.
+Find related software here:

+# Logarion
+
+Logarion is a [free and open-source][Licence] personal note taking, journaling and publication system; a blog-wiki hybrid.
+
+## Features
+
+- Plain file system store, where each note is a file.
+- Command line & web interfaces.
+- Atom feeds
+- Static (conversion to files for uploading) & dynamic serving (HTTP, Gopher, ..).
+
+
+## Community & support
+
+- Website: <https://logarion.orbitalfox.eu>
+- Mailing list: <https://lists.orbitalfox.eu/listinfo/logarion>
+- Matrix (chat): `#logarion:matrix.org`. Via Riot web-app: <https://riot.im/app/#/room/#logarion:matrix.org>
+- For issues peferably email to [mailto:logarion@lists.orbitalfox.eu](mailto:logarion@lists.orbitalfox.eu?subject=[Issue] summary-here).
+  Alternatively <https://gitlab.com/orbifx/logarion/issues>
+
+
+## Install
+
+The following instructions are the quickest way to install Logarion (in the absence of binary releases).
+
+```
+opam pin add logarion git://orbitalfox.eu/logarion
+opam install logarion
+```
+
+Once installed you will have `logarion` for command line control of the repository.
+
+## Archives
+
+### Command line
+
+Create a folder and run `logarion init` from within it to produce `.logarion/config.toml`, which is the core configuration file.
+The archive options are under the `[archive]` section.
+
+Run `logarion --help` for more options.
+
+
+#### Theme
+
+Optionally install a [Sass](http://sass-lang.com/) compiler, like [sassc](http://sass-lang.com/libsass#sassc), and then run `make theme-dark` or `make theme-light`, to generate a stylesheet as `share/static/main.css`, using the respective Sass files in `share/sass/`.
