+# About
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+This program runs as a daemon (proxied by a TLS-enabled real httpd server) and provides the basic services for a Fediverse / ActivityPub instance (sharing messages and stuff from/to other systems like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc.).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+This is not the manual; man pages `snac(1)` (user manual), `snac(5)` (formats) and `snac(8)` (administrator manual) are what you are looking for.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+**This is a work in progress and everything is on fire and you can get hurt.**
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+`snac` stands for Social Networks Are Crap.

|
|
+# Installation
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+This 2.x release is written in C (unlike the 1.x prototype, which was written in Python). The only external dependencies are `openssl` and `curl`.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+On Debian/Ubuntu, you can satisfy these requirements by running
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+ apt install libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+On OpenBSD you don't need to install anything because the base system provides all the needed software.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Run `make` and then `make install` as root.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+See the administrator manual on how to proceed from here.
