+## FAQ
+
+### > what is this?
+sentinel is a C program that is gathering information from various sources different in nature and outputs them in a digest in form of a TUI dashboard - this includes OSINT communities' news feeds, your local SDR frequency spectrum analysis, DEFCON level and more
+### > how exactly does it work?
+mostly by scrapping API endpoints, gathering RSS feeds and getting readings from your SDR and demodulating them into a readable format(i.e. ACARS beacon transmissions can be decoded and used to get info about most aircraft in your area) - this allows for easy and fast threat assessment by an operator(you)
+### > contributing?
+but of course! if you wish to add support for your SDR or generally help me make this idea become true - go ahead! you can contact me at [hornet@lainlounge.xyz](mailto:hornet@lainlounge.xyz) via email or XMPP
+
+## installation
+WIP
+
+this is a C program, so everything here will be around compiling stuff with gcc, or maybe i'll learn how to use make properly
+
+## roadmap
+
+for v1.0 release:
+- TUI dashboard
+- RTL-SDRv3 support
+- ACARS beacon decoder
+- RSS aggregator
+- DEFCON level scrapper
+
+there will be intermediate development releases as this project progresses
