The idea behind this software came from the [Permacomputing Update
2021](http://viznut.fi/texts-en/permacomputing_update_2021.html), especially

"Chapter 7. A collapse-tolerant buhackingsiness" which is a series of practical

## Road Map, Get it going, Change while we learn

- Make it able to search multiple directories filled with pdfs
- Make it able to up/download pdfs
- I made a config where you can set a share and downloads folder much like p2p sharing programs.
- go-sh-manymanuals could be both a client and server program at the same time.
- You can download off big servers.
- You can download off each other locally.
- It should keep track of what you already have, because doubles are the big pain in PDF's/filesharing in general
- Maybe in the future, entire folders can be synced between you and current connected server.
- Make it able to index those pdfs into the search.
- Improve the layout.
