Notes

Please check the open issues for an area to contribute. bukuserver has several open features requests.

The list below is a growing one. While suggesting new features please consider contributing to Buku. The code is intentionally kept simple and easy to understand with comments. We'll be happy to assist any new contributor. We need your help!
