It's not rocket science.\n\nBuild dependencies:\n - Crystal language, https://crystal-lang.org/install.\n\n```bash\n$ git clone https://github.com/kandayo/likee-scraper\n$ cd likee-scraper\n$ shards build --release --ignore-crystal-version\n$ ./bin/likeer --help\n```\n\nThen move the binary to your PATH, or just use it right away.\n\n## Usage\n\nFor more examples, please refer to the [**documentation**](https://absolab.xyz/likee-scraper).\n\n### Download profile by @username\n\nLooking up a user by username requires an additional API request. It's strongly\nrecommended to use User IDs instead. Usernames must be prefixed with an `@`.\n\n```bash\n$ likeer -u @username1 -u @username2 [...]\n```\n\n### Download profile by User ID\n\nIf a identifier does not have a prefix, it is assumed to be an User ID.\n\n```bash\n$ likeer -u 11111111\n```\n\n### Batch file\n\nIf `--batch-file \u003cfile.txt\u003e` (or `-a`) is given, Likee will read *file.txt*\nexpecting @usernames and User IDs to download, one identifier per line.\nLines starting with an `#` or empty lines are considered as comments and\nignored.\n\nUsernames must be prefixed with an `@`, e.g. `@username`.\n\nIDs must not be prefixed with an `@`, e.g. `1111111`.\n\n```bash\n$ cat batch.txt\n~\u003e # Comment (ignored)\n~\u003e @username   # Inline comments are also allowed.\n~\u003e 111111111\n\n$ likeer -a batch.txt\n```\n\n### Fast update\n\nIf `--fast-update` (or `-f`) is given, Likeer stops when arriving at the\nfirst already downloaded video. This flag is recommended when you use Likeer\nto update your personal archive.\n\nThis concept was inspired by Instaloader.\n\n```\n$ likeer -f -u @username\n\nDownloading 1 profile: @username.\n\nCollecting videos from profile @username.\n + Example Username - 000003.mp4 [========================] 11.1 MB | 100%\n + Example Username - 000002.mp4; exists\n✅ Example Username in sync!\n```\n\n## Contributing\n\n1.
