TLDR is an Internet acronym for "too long, didn't read". It is this acronym that powers the TLDR (stylized tl;dr) search engine, which allows students to upload and search an endless stream of course notes, reading notes, practice exams, and more for no charge. Think of it as an entire world of summarized information. Sound cool? Keep reading, my friend.
Getting up and running with TLDR is ridiculously simple. Just cd into the source directory and run:
make
One word. See? Simple. Of course, if you want to do a little more than just run everything at once, here's a nice table of what you can do with the make command:
| Command | Description |

make assets |

And, of course, to visit TLDR just visit:
