+## Improve the website
+
+PeerTube's website is [joinpeertube.org](https://joinpeertube.org), where people can learn about the project and how it works – note that it is not a PeerTube instance, but rather the project's homepage.
+
+You can help us improve it too!
+
+It is not hosted on GitHub but on [Framasoft](https://framasoft.org/)'s own [GitLab](https://about.gitlab.com/) instance, [FramaGit](https://framagit.org): https://framagit.org/framasoft/peertube/joinpeertube

## Develop
Don't hesitate to talk about features you want to develop by creating/commenting an issue
$ npm run dev
```
+Depending on your OS, you may face the following error :
+```
+$ [nodemon] Internal watch failed: ENOSPC: no space left on device, watch '/PeerTube/dist'
+```
+
+This is due to your system's limit on the number of files you can monitor for live-checking changes. For example, Ubuntu uses inotify and this limit is set to 8192. Then you need to change this limit :
+```
+echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p
+```
+
+See more information here : https://github.com/guard/listen/wiki/Increasing-the-amount-of-inotify-watchers

+### Configurations for VPS
+
+If you want to develop using a Virtual Private Server, you will need to configure the url for the API and the hostname. First, you need to edit the [client/src/environments/environment.hmr.ts](client/src/environments/environment.hmr.ts) file by replacing the `localhost` in the `apiUrl` field with the address of your VPS. Thus, the [Hot Module Replacement](https://webpack.js.org/concepts/hot-module-replacement/) from Webpack will be set up for developping with live-reload.
+
+Next, you will need to edit the [config/default.yaml](config/default.yaml) file. Just replace the `localhost` with your VPS address in the following `hostname` fields :
+```
+listen:
+ hostname: 'my-vps-address.net'
+ port: 9000
+
+webserver:
+ https: false
+ hostname: 'my-vps-address.net'
+ port: 9000
+```
+
+Then, you just need to listen to `https://my-vps-address.net:3000/` in your web browser.

### Federation
Create a PostgreSQL user **with the same name as your username** in order to avoid using the *postgres* user.
