+## About
+
+Libervia Web is the official web frontend of the Libervia project. It is designed to be
+user-friendly and offers a wide range of features including instant messaging, blogs,
+forums, photo albums, file sharing, event organization, personal agendas, and various
+kinds of lists (tickets, TODOs, shopping, etc.). Upcoming enhancements include the
+addition of video calls. Libervia Web is an all-encompassing, universally compatible tool,
+ideal for individuals, small and large groups, associations, internal communication,
+public-facing websites, and private social networks.
+
+The platform includes an easy-to-use invitation system, which simplifies the process of
+bringing new members into the network. This system allows people to participate even if
+they don't have an account.
+
+Leveraging the power of [Brython](https://www.brython.info/), Python can be utilized both
+server-side and in the browser. In essence, Libervia Web is a web framework created with
+Python, capitalizing on the robustness of XMPP and Libervia for data management. This
+makes it highly customizable, enabling the frontend to be easily adapted for specific use
+cases or themes.
