+
+## Intro
+
+This project reached to a point when I cannot maintain it alone. 
+I'm happy to see that some people already submitted some pull requests (PR) so everyone can benefit their changes.
+In general I'm happy to merge PRs, but I recommend to file a ticket and ask first if it is OK.
+
+
+
+## How to develop
+
+1. Download the sourcefiles
+2. install dependencies `npm install`
+3. Build client  `npm run run-dev`
+   * This will build the client with english localization and will keep building if you change the source files
+4. Build the backend `npm run build-backend`
+   * This runs `tsc` that transpiles `.ts` files to `.js` so node can run them. 
+     * To rebuild on change run `tsc -w`
+   * Note: you can skip this test if you use and IDE that supports typescript (e.g.: webstorm, vscode)
+5. Run the server `npm start`
