+yttui
+===
+
+This is a TUI tool to monitor YouTube channels for new videos and keep track of which ones you've watched already.
+This tool is work in progress and some functions might not work (correctly).
+
+### Building
+#### Requirements:
+* Linux (other platforms are untested)
+* A modern, C++17 capable compiler
+* qmake
+* make
+* pkg-config
+* Installed (with development packages is appropriate) and accesible via pkg-config:
+    * [libcurl](https://curl.se)
+    * [nlohman-json](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/) (at least version 3.5.0)
+    * [sqlite3](https://sqlite.org)
+    * [termpaint](https://termpaint.namepad.de/)
+
+#### How to build
+1. Create a build folder and open a terminal there.
+1. Run qmake. E.g. `qmake ..`.
+1. Run `make`.
+1. You can now start the application by running `./yttui` (but have a look at the configuration options first).
+
+
+### Getting started
+1. Build the application
+1. Get a YouTube API key.
+1. Create a configuration file.
+    - You can either put it next to the application binary or in `$HOME/.config/yttui.conf`
+    - Have a look at `yttui.conf.sample`. It contains all possible configuration options and is a good place to start.
+    - Configuration default values are described in "Configuration options".
+1. Start the application. You can press `F1` at any time to get help and `C-q` (holding down the control key and pressing q) to quit.
+
+
+### Configuration options
+|Option | Description | Default value | Required |
+|-------|-------------|---------------|--------- |
+| apiKey | YouTube API Key | | ✔ |
+| extraHeaders | Extra HTTP headers to send to YouTube. This is a JSON array of objects containing `"key"` and `"value"`. Will be sent with each API requres. | `[]`  | ✘  |
+| database | Path of channel/video database | $HOME/.local/share/yttui.db | ✘ |
