+
+*Boooo!* A simple streaming server with authentication and open-source technologies.
+
+Features:
+
+-   WebRTC playback with a lightweight web interface.
+-   Low-latency streaming, sub-second with web player.
+-   Authentification of incoming stream using LDAP server.
+
+## Installation with Docker
+
+An example is given in [docs/docker-compose.yml](doc/docker-compose.yml).
+It uses Traefik reverse proxy.
+
