Inspired by [netham91/Quick-Share](https://github.com/netham91/Quick-Share). ## :package: Getting Started To get started, head over to the [releases](https://github.com/sbrl/GalleryShare/releases/) page and download the latest release. +A solution for on GitLab are a work in progress, as there isn't currently a way to upload binaries. ([Git LFS](https://git-lfs.github.com/) is one such solution under investigation). For now, download from the GitHub release. + If you're on Linux or Mac, you'll need to install the [mono](http://www.mono-project.com/) runtime. Debian users can simply execute `sudo apt install mono-runtime` - users of other distributions can just substitute `apt` for their own package manager :smiley_cat: -If you're on Windows, you'e already got everything installed that you need, though it should be noted that due to a ridiculous quirk in the way `System.Net.HttpListener` works, you'll need to run GalleryShare as an administrator!

If you use the mono runtime (Yes, it is available for Windows too!), you shouldn't experience this problem though. Once you've got yourself setup, simply execute `GalleryShare.exe`, and it'll start the GalleryShare server. Type `./GalleryShare.exe --help` to learn more about the different options provided, such as a way to change the port GalleryShare listens on, or the directory GalleryShare serves from.
