Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- WriteFreely deploys as a static binary on any platform and architecture that Go supports. Just use our built-in SQLite support, or add a MySQL database, and you'll be up and running!
- For common platforms, start with our [pre-built binaries](https://github.com/writefreely/writefreely/releases/) and head over to our [installation guide](https://writefreely.org/start) to get started.
