# Bibliogram ## An alternative front-end for Instagram. Bibliogram works without client-side JavaScript, has no ads or tracking, and doesn't urge you to sign up.

Perflyst has hosted an instance on https://bibliogram.snopyta.org ([example page](https://bibliogram.snopyta.org/u/instagram)), but this is not managed by me and I cannot verify its code. If you only use one computer, you can install Bibliogram on that computer and then access the instance through localhost. ## Installing Bibliogram depends on GraphicsMagick for resizing thumbnails. Ubuntu: `# apt install graphicsmagick` 1. `$ git clone https://github.com/cloudrac3r/bibliogram` If you are using a fork, be sure to actually install that fork instead! 1. `$ npm install` 1. Edit `/config.js` to suit your server environment 1. `$ npm start` Bibliogram is now running on `0.0.0.0:10407`. ## User-facing endpoints - `/u/{username}` - load a user's profile and timeline - `/u/{username}/rss.xml` - get the RSS feed for a user - `/p/{shortcode}` - load a post
