+# LandChad.net ([https://landchad.net](https://landchad.net))
+
+A site dedicated to turn web peasants into Internet LandChads.
+
+Simple step-by-step text and image-based tutorials for creating websites, email servers, chat servers, server administration and everything else.
+
+Suggestions welcome.
+
+This site is compiled and organized with Hugo, using [this very simple theme](https://github.com/lukesmithxyz/lugo).
+
+## Submission guidelines
+
+- Follow the general style of pre-existing articles.
+- use the root user (i.e. no `sudo`) unless there is a specific need.
+- do not preface commands with `$` or `#` or anything.
+- use `.svg` files for icons/logos and for illustrative images favor webp, keep filesize low.
+- Use `example.org` the example domain.
+- Do not add Docker tutorials.
+- Installable services must have the `service` tag and an `icon` set in the metadata so they properly appear in the service display.
+- Server/sysadmin tips should have the `server` tag, so they appear in that list.
