 # activitypubplay
-A repo for playing with ActivityPub implementation in various languages and frameworks
+Yvan's basic ActivityPub implementations in various languages. The project is
+to build an implementation that provides the ability to do nothing more than
+create "bots" and post messages as those bots.  I've made sarts in Go and PHP
+which I'll push into here in time, but this repo was created with a Java
+implementation as the first project.
+
+I claim to be no expert in any programming language, these are not intended to
+be definitive expert quality coding examples. They are in fact a learning
+experience for myself and feedback is thus very welcome!

+## Java / Spring Boot
+
+    Java/Spring/activitypubbot
+
+An implementation using the
+[Spring Boot](https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/index.html "Spring Boot")
+framework trying to refresh and educate myself in some styles of MVC
+and DAO pattern type web application implementations as well as remember
+Java itself! A language I have only used very lightly in the last
+20 years, though I learnt it and even taught using it back in Uni.
+(A very long time ago...)
+
+## Go
+
+Actually the first implementation I started but not got too far yet, hopefully
+to upload in time. Not got as far as picking a web framework for this.
+
+## PHP / Laravel
+
+My second implementation but also not got too far with it yet, going with
+Laravel as it was specified in a job role I was applying for but that blanked
+out so I moved on with the Java one as higher priority.
