   7 Run:
   8
   9 * Download repository and change directory to it
  10 * Start webserver (e.g. `python3 -m http.server`)
  11 * Go to `http://localhost:8000`
  12
  13 Configure with [config.js](config.js).
  14
  15 ## Update Database
  16
  17 OpenWrt master has a feature to create json files: `Global build settings  ---> [*] Create JSON info files per build image`.
  18
  19 A [Python script](misc/collect.py) is included that can merge all these JSON files for a new data.json file: `./collect.py bin/ > data.json`
  20
  21 The data JSON file can also include a link that will overwrite downloadLink from `config.json`.

  23 ## Contributions
  24
  25 It would be nice to have more features. E.g.:
  26
  27 * more translations
  28 * help text for images
  29 * better CSS
