+# todo
+
+A simple todo web application.
+
+## Install
+
+First, you need to fetch some dependencies:
+
+### Fat-Free Framework
+
+Download the Fat-Free Framework from [http://fatfreeframework.com/](http://fatfreeframework.com/) and extract the content of the `lib` folder into the `lib` folder of this application.
+
+### DejaVu Sans ExtraLight
+
+Get this light front from [http://www.fonts2u.com/download/dejavu-sans-extralight.font-face](http://www.fonts2u.com/download/dejavu-sans-extralight.font-face) and extract the files into the `ui/DejaVu_Sans_ExtraLight` directory
+
+Now that all dependencies are fetched, you can copy the application to your webserver. Just one thing: Change the permissions of the `tmp` directory so the webserver can write to it.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Todo is configured with the `config.ini` file.
+
+* `DEBUG` – Unless you intend to further develop this application, leave this to `0`
+* `sql_dsn` – The [PDO DSN]() for connecting to the database
+* `sql_user` – Username for the database access
+* `sql_pass` – Password for the database access
+* `mail_from` – Outgoing mails (confirmation codes, password reset mails) will use this E-Mail address for the `From` field
+* `appname` – The name of the application
+
+### Protecting the configuration file
+
+It is usually a bad idea that the config file is accessible via the web, since people can then see the username and password of your database.
+
+One possibility to prevent this, is to move the file into a directory that can not be accessed via the web and then modifying `index.php`: Search for the line `$f3->config('config.ini');` and change the `config.ini` part to point to the new location.
+
+## Or just use my public installation
