I'd like to give borgweb a try, because I'm happy with borgbackup itself. Yet I haven't found an description, how to tell borgweb to give me a fancypantsy webview of my backups. I'd expect a borgbackup.conf, where I simply specify params like naming, source and destinations, possibly ssh keys for the transfer, etc. and a document, which tells me: "hey smartass, create a config file and fill it with somethink like $foo" I don't know where your journey goes, so, if you like support, what can I do to make borgweb more usable?

Try the "latest" doc, it is more complete and better readable than "stable" docs:

You really need to put at least a link to that on the website and in the README on GitHub. No one's going to know about it here. 99% of people who try to use your app are going to fall over otherwise and most probably won't search for an issue.

ok, github headline and readme now links to latest docs.
