+# Installation and Testing
+
+To get started with Websurfx, clone the repository, edit the config file
+which is located in the `websurfx`{.verbatim} directory and install
+redis server by following the instructions located
+[here](https://redis.io/docs/getting-started/) and then run the websurfx
+server and redis server using the following commands:
+
+``` shell
+git clone https://github.com/neon-mmd/websurfx.git
+cd websurfx
+cargo build
+redis-server -p 8082 &
+./target/debug/websurfx
+```
+
+If you want to use the rolling/edge branch, run the following commands
+instead:
+
+``` shell
+git clone https://github.com/neon-mmd/websurfx.git
+cd websurfx
+git checkout rolling
+cargo build
+redis-server -p 8082 &
+./target/debug/websurfx
+```
+
+Once you have started the server, open your preferred web browser and
+navigate to <http://127.0.0.1:8080> to start using Websurfx.
+
+**Important Note:** Please be aware that the project is still in the
+testing phase and is not ready for production use.
+
+# Configuration
+
+Websurfx is configured through the config.lua file, located at
+`websurfx/config.lua`{.verbatim}.
+
+# Theming
+
+Websurfx comes with several themes and colorschemes by default which you
+can apply and edit through the config file. Support for custom themes
+and colorschemes using css and develop your own unique-looking website.
+
+# More Contributers Wanted
+
+We are looking for more willing contributors to help grow this project.
+For more information on how you can contribute, check out the [project
+board](https://github.com/neon-mmd/websurfx/projects?query=is%3Aopen)
+and the [CONTRIBUTING.org](CONTRIBUTING.org) file for guidelines and
+rules for making contributions.
+
+# FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
+
+## Why Websurfx?
+
+The main goal of the Websurfx project is to provide a fast, secure, and
+privacy-focused [meta search
+engine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metasearch_engine). While there
+are many meta search engines available, they do not always guarantee the
+security of their search engine, which is essential for ensuring
+privacy. For example, memory vulnerabilities can leak private or
+sensitive information, which is never good. Websurfx is written in Rust,
+which guarantees memory safety and eliminates such problems. Many meta
+search engines also lack key features such as advanced image search,
+which is required by many graphic designers, content creators, and
+others. Websurfx aims to provide these features and others, such as
+proper NSFW blocking, to improve the user experience.
+
+## Why AGPLv3?
+
+Websurfx is released under the **AGPLv3** license to ensure that the
+source code remains open and transparent. This helps to prevent the
+inclusion of spyware, telemetry, or other malicious code in the project.
+**AGPLv3** is a strong copyleft license that ensures the source code of
+the software remains open and available to everyone, including any
+modifications or improvements made to the code.
+
+## Why Rust?
+
+Rust was chosen as the programming language for Websurfx due to its
+memory safety features, which can help prevent vulnerabilities and make
+the codebase more secure. Rust is also faster than C++, which helps to
+make Websurfx fast and responsive. In addition, Rust\'s ownership and
+borrowing system allows for safe concurrency and thread safety in the
+codebase.
+
+# Contributing
+
+Contributions are welcome from anyone. It doesn\'t matter who you are;
+you can still contribute to the project in your way.

+## Not a developer but still want to contribute?

+to contribute.

-* Goals for future development
-
-- Replace Handlebars with the faster templating engine /Tera/.
-  
-- Add more upstream search engines.
-  
-- Implement dorking support (like Google).
-  
-- Add advanced search functionality and a dropdown menu for it.
-  
-- Add more categories to the search engine's search page, such as images, files, news, and maps.
-  
-- Add advanced image functionality for content creators, video editors, etc.
-  
-- Add GPT integration, taking inspiration from the Langchain module of Python or incorporating it using pyo3, and give users the choice to add an API key. Giving users the choice is important, as some people may be against AI, and this will ensure that those users who don't want to use GPT can disable it by not adding an API key.
