+- pds: crude system and application database (sqlite)

+- pds: self-hosted did:web configuration

-## Quickstart (CLI)
-To work with an actual PDS server, you will need to get the

-PDS up and running locally. There is a separate

-If you run a Debian-base Linux distribution, you might be able to install an
-existing package (TODO: link). Otherwise, you'll need to build the CLI tool
-from source. Install a recent version of the Rust programming language
-toolchain (eg, using [`rustup`](https://rustup.rs/)

-The top level workplace includes the GUI and PDS code, which include huge
-dependency trees and are very slow to build. If you just want the CLI, enter
-the `adenosine-cli` directory before running any `cargo` commands.

-To build, test, and locally install just the CLI (using `cargo`):
-
- cd adenosine-cli
- cargo install
-
-To start interacting with a PDS, set the `ATP_HOST` environment variable. Then
-either register a test account, or create a new session for an existing
-account, and save the JWT token to the `ATP_AUTH_TOKEN`:
-

+`adenosine-pds`: small-world atproto.com Personal Data Server
+=============================================================
+
+This is a simple, enthusiast-grade AT Protocol
+([atproto.com](https://atproto.com)) personal data server ("PDS")
+implementation. It targets "small-world" uses cases of the protocol, for
+example personal or organizational self-hosting.
+
+There is a [manpage](../extra/adenosine-pds.1.md) with usage and configuration
+details.
+
+Features:
+
+- [x] com.atproto Lexicon implementation (not validated)
+- [x] crude repo CAR file export (full history)
+- [x] partial app.bsky Lexicon implementation (posts, follows)
+- [x] crude internal did:plc generation
+- [x] crude repo storage and manipulation
+- [x] self-hosted did:web configuration
+- [x] small-world registration and did:plc hosting configuration
+- [ ] server-to-server interaction, at all (repo sync, etc)
+- [ ] remote DID resolution (did:plc, did:web, etc)
+- [ ] Lexicon schema validation of records/requests
+- [ ] repo CAR file import: validation and app db update
+- [ ] did:plc server interaction and chain validation
+- [ ] complete app.bsky Lexicon implementation (notifications, likes, actors, etc)
+
+Two main deployment configurations are supported:
+
+- "fixed did:web accounts": accounts can only be registered at the CLI, and
+ did:web is used instead of did:plc. A did:web DID document is served from
+ `/.well-known/did.json` for matching domains, and a profile/feed is served
+ from the homepage when domain matches
+- "domain wildcard registration": accounts can be registered via XRPC, limited
+ to handles under a specific hosting domain, and possibly requiring a secret
+ invite code. did:plc identifiers are generated locally. web views are served
+ from any domain, with registered handle domains being a profile/feed view
+
+## Quickstart
+
+TODO
+
+- generate a PDS-wide secret key, and store as env configuration variable
+- set other config variables (see `--help` or manpage)
+
+## Deployment
+
+TODO: rewrite this
+
+- generate a PDS-wide secret key, and store as env configuration variable
+- set other config variables (see `--help` or manpage)
+- set up reverse proxy with SSL (eg, caddy or nginx or haproxy)
+- run command from an appropriate local working directory (for databases)
+- maybe set up a systemd unit file
+- `adenosine-pds serve -vv`
+
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+This is a Rust programming language project.
+
+Currently uses `rouille` as a (blocking) web framework; `rusqlite` for
+(blocking) direct sqlite database interaction; `ipfs-sqlite-block-store` as a
+(blocking) IPLD block store.
+
+A bunch of cleanup and refactoring would be useful:
+
+- cleaner ownership and referencing (reduce wasteful allocations)
+- error handling (reduce `unwrap()` hacks)
+- avoid mutex poisoning
+- switch to async/await concurrency (replace or wrap blocking datastores) (eg,
+ `axum`, `sqlx`, `iroh` blockstore)
+
+
+### Vendored Code
+
+The `iroh-car` crate, which has not (yet) been published to crates.io, has been
+vendored out of the `iroh` project in to a sub-module of this crate. This is
+basically a verbatim copy, and the original copyright and license applies to
+that code.
+
+`ucan` support for the `p256` key type is implemented in this crate. Hoping to
+get this upstreamed.
