+![Kalamar](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/KorAP/Kalamar/master/dev/demo/img/kalamar.png)
+
+Kalamar is a [Mojolicious](http://mojolicio.us/)-based user interface
+frontend for the [KorAP Corpus Analysis Platform](http://korap.ids-mannheim.de/).
+
+![Kalamar Screenshots](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/KorAP/Kalamar/master/dev/demo/img/screenshots.png)
+
+**! This software is in its early stages and not stable yet! Use it on your own risk!**
+
+## INSTALLATION
+
+### Setup
+
+To fetch the latest version of Kalamar ...
+
+```
+$ git clone https://github.com/KorAP/Kalamar
+$ cd Krill
+```
+
+### Generate Static Asset Files
+
+To generate the static asset files (scripts, styles, images ...),
+you need NodeJS > 0.8. This will probably need administration
+rights.
+
+```
+$ npm install
+$ grunt
+```
+
+### Start Server
+
+Kalamar uses the [Mojolicious](http://mojolicio.us/) framework,
+that expects a Perl version of at least 5.10.1.
+The recommended environment is based on [Perlbrew](http://perlbrew.pl/)
+with [App::cpanminus](http://search.cpan.org/~miyagawa/App-cpanminus/).
+
+Some perl modules are not on CPAN yet, so you need to install them from GitHub.
+The easiest way to do this is using
+[App::cpanminus](http://search.cpan.org/~miyagawa/App-cpanminus/).
+This will probably need administration rights.
+
+```
+$ cpanm git://github.com/Akron/Mojolicious-Plugin-Search.git
+$ cpanm --force git://github.com/Akron/Mojolicious-Plugin-Localize.git
+```
+
+Then install the dependencies as always and run the test suite.
+There is no need to install Kalamar on your system.
+
+```
+$ perl Makefile.PL
+$ make test
+```
+
+Kalamar can be deployed like all
+[Mojolicious apps](http://mojolicio.us/perldoc/Mojolicious/Guides/Cookbook#DEPLOYMENT).
+The easiest way is to start the built-in server:
+
+```
+$ perl script/kalamar daemon
+```
+
+Kalamar will then be available at *localhost:3000* in your browser.
