Describe the bug

I search for a Image server software where I could stor our families Photos. From the description of the Feature It is not so clear what photobooth is. I currently only assume that it is a software for manage photos.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Assume you do not know what fotoboot is.
  2. Open Github and try to find a text that describe the usecase on the readme.
  3. go to https://photoboothproject.github.io
  4. read the FAQ
  5. Currently, I assume it is a Picture server with the possibility to add a camera.

Expected behavior

I expected a text that tell what this software is for, may what not.

Hey and thanks for your recommendation. I guess the name Photobooth describes well it's not an gallery only. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photo_booth

The web page is deployed from the files inside the docs/ folder of the source. You're gladly welcome to contribute to the project and webpage and create a pull request.

Best regards

I'm not an English speaker. I had to check what booth means on dictionary. At first I translated it with a storage room or kind of a convenient shop. I didn't had the idea to check Wikipedia. (for the record, currently I evaluate piwigo)
