traditional search engines that use automated crawlers, **Atheja lets users submit and manage websites themselves**, building a transparent, privacy-respecting, and community-driven search index.\n\nThis approach ensures that:\n- Content is added **intentionally** by contributors, not automatically scraped.\n- Search results remain **transparent** and **user-curated**.\n- The community—not advertisers—guides the web discovery process.\n\nAtheja is part of the **Lantern-Lighthouse initiative**, focused on developing open, collaborative, and ethical internet tools.\n\n---\n\n## ✨ Features\n\n- 🔍 **User-Driven Indexing** – Websites are added and described by users, not crawlers.\n- ⚡ **Fast \u0026 Lightweight** – Built using the [Fat-Free Framework (F3)](https://fatfreeframework.com/3.9/home) for performance and simplicity.  \n- 🧩 **Powered by F3 Cortex** – Uses [F3 Cortex](https://github.com/ikkez/f3-cortex) for database abstraction (ORM/ODM).  \n- 🧠 **API-Based Architecture** – Provides REST-style JSON APIs for integration with frontends and tools.  \n- 🗄️ **Database-Agnostic** – Works with MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, and SQLite.  \n- 🌍 **Open Source \u0026 Transparent** – Licensed under GPL-3.0 and open for everyone to contribute.\n\n---\n\n## 🛠️ Built With\n\n- [PHP 8.0+](https://www.php.net/)\n- [Fat-Free Framework (F3)](https://fatfreeframework.com/3.9/home)\n- [F3 Cortex](https://github.com/ikkez/f3-cortex)\n- [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/)\n\n\n---\n\n## 🚀 Getting Started\n\nFollow these steps to set up Atheja locally for development or testing.\n\n### ✅ Prerequisites\n\nYou’ll need the following installed:\n- PHP ≥ 8.0  \n- Composer  \n- A local database server (MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, or SQLite)  \n- Git\n\n---\n\n### ⚙️ Installation\n\n1. **Clone the Repository**\n   ```bash\n   git clone https://github.com/Lantern-Lighthouse/Atheja.git\n   cd Atheja\n   ```\n\n2.  **Configure your database:**\n    Copy the example configuration file. This file stores your database credentials and is ignored by Git.\n    ```sh\n    cp app/Configs/db.ini.example app/Configs/db.ini\n    ```\n    Now, **edit `app/Configs/db.ini`** to match your local database username, password, and database name.\n\n3.  **Install project dependencies:**\n    This command downloads all the necessary PHP libraries (like the Fat-Free Framework) defined in `composer.json`.\n    ```bash\n    # If you have Composer installed globally (recommended)\n    composer install\n    \n    # Or, use the local install script:\n    php -r \"copy('[https://getcomposer.org/installer](https://getcomposer.org/installer)', 'composer-setup.php');\" \u0026\u0026 \\\n    php composer-setup.php \u0026\u0026 \\\n    php composer.phar install \u0026\u0026 \\\n    rm composer-setup.php composer.phar\n    ```\n\n4.  **Start the local development server:**\n    This built-in PHP server is great for development.\n    ```sh\n    php --server=\"localhost:8081\"\n    ```\n    Your project is now running at `http://localhost:8081`.\n\n5.  **Initialize the database:**\n    Visit the following URL in your browser or API client (like Postman or Insomnia). This endpoint runs the initial setup to create the necessary database tables.\n    ```\n    http://localhost:8081/api/db/init\n    ```\n\nYou're all set! The backend is running and connected to your database.\n\n\n## 👋 Contributing\n\nContributions are what make the open-source community such an amazing place to learn, inspire, and create.
