+# Making collaborative editing the standard on the web
+
+# About
+Etherpad lite is a really-real time collaborative editor spawned from the Hell fire of Etherpad.
+We're reusing the well tested Etherpad easysync library to make it really realtime. Etherpad Lite
+is based on node.js ergo is much lighter and more stable than the original Etherpad. Our hope
+is that this will encourage more users to use and install a realtime collaborative editor. A smaller, manageable and well
+documented codebase makes it easier for developers to improve the code and contribute towards the project.
+
+**Etherpad vs Etherpad lite**
+
+
+ | Etherpad | Etherpad Lite |
+
+
+ Size of the folder (without git history) | 30 MB | 1.5 MB |
+
+
+ Languages used server side | Javascript (Rhino), Java, Scala | Javascript (node.js) |
+
+
+ Lines of server side Javascript code | ~101k | ~9k |
+
+
+ RAM Usage immediately after start | 257 MB (grows to ~1GB) | 16 MB (grows to ~30MB) |

+
+
+Etherpad Lite is designed to be easily embeddable and provides a [HTTP API](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/wiki/HTTP-API)
+that allows your web application to manage pads, users and groups. It is recommended to use the client implementations available for this API, listed on [this wiki page](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/wiki/HTTP-API-client-libraries).
+There is also a [jQuery plugin](https://github.com/johnyma22/etherpad-lite-jquery-plugin) that helps you to embed Pads into your website
+
+**Visit [beta.etherpad.org](http://beta.etherpad.org) to test it live**
+
+Also, check out the **[FAQ](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/wiki/FAQ)**, really!
+
+# Installation
+
+## Windows
+
+### Prebuilt windows package
+This package works out of the box on any windows machine, but it's not very useful for developing purposes...
+
+1. Download the windows package
+2. Extract the folder
+
+Now, run `start.bat` and open in your browser. You like it? [Next steps](#next-steps).
+
+### Fancy install
+You'll need [node.js](http://nodejs.org) and (optionally, though recommended) git.
+
+1. Grab the source, either
+ - download
+ - or `git clone https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite.git` (for this you need git, obviously)
+2. start `bin\installOnWindows.bat`
+
+Now, run `start.bat` and open in your browser.
+
+Update to the latest version with `git pull origin`, then run `bin\installOnWindows.bat`, again.
+
+[Next steps](#next-steps).
+
+## Linux
+You'll need gzip, git, curl, libssl develop libraries, python and gcc.
+*For Debian/Ubuntu*: `apt-get install gzip git-core curl python libssl-dev pkg-config build-essential`
+*For Fedora/CentOS*: `yum install gzip git-core curl python openssl-devel && yum groupinstall "Development Tools"`
+
+Additionally, you'll need [node.js](http://nodejs.org) installed, Ideally the latest stable version, be careful of installing nodejs from apt.
+
+**As any user (we recommend creating a separate user called etherpad-lite):**
+
+1. Move to a folder where you want to install Etherpad Lite. Clone the git repository `git clone git://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite.git`
+2. Change into the new directory containing the cloned source code `cd etherpad-lite`
+
+Now, run `bin/run.sh` and open in your browser.
+
+Update to the latest version with `git pull origin`. The next start with bin/run.sh will update the dependencies.
+
+You like it? [Next steps](#next-steps).
+
+# Next Steps
+
+## Tweak the settings
+You can modify the settings in `settings.json`. (If you need to handle multiple settings files, you can pass the path to a settings file to `bin/run.sh` using the `-s|--settings` option. This allows you to run multiple Etherpad Lite instances from the same installation.)
+
+You should use a dedicated database such as "mysql", if you are planning on using etherpad-lite in a production environment, since the "dirtyDB" database driver is only for testing and/or development purposes.
+
+## Helpful resources
+The [wiki](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/wiki) is your one-stop resource for Tutorials and How-to's, really check it out! Also, feel free to improve these wiki pages.
+
+Documentation can be found in `docs/`.
+
+# Development
+
+## Things you should know
+Read this [git guide](http://learn.github.com/p/intro.html) and watch this [video on getting started with Etherpad Lite Development](http://youtu.be/67-Q26YH97E).
+
+If you're new to node.js, start with Ryan Dahl's [Introduction to Node.js](http://youtu.be/jo_B4LTHi3I).
+
+You can debug Etherpad lite using `bin/debugRun.sh`.
+
+If you want to find out how Etherpad's `Easysync` works (the library that makes it really realtime), start with this [PDF](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/raw/master/doc/easysync/easysync-full-description.pdf) (complex, but worth reading).
+
+## Getting started
+You know all this and just want to know how you can help?
+
+Look at the [TODO list](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/wiki/TODO) and our [Issue tracker](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/issues). (Please consider using [jshint](http://www.jshint.com/about/), if you plan to contribute code.)
+
+Also, and most importantly, read our [**Developer Guidelines**](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/wiki/Developer-Guidelines), really!
