+# macli
+Unofficial CLI-Based MyAnimeList Client
+
+## How to use
+Currently, macli is heavily under development so there are no pre-built binaries available.
+
+### To compile macli,
+
+1. Clone this repo
+2. Create a .env file with the following data:
+```
+ACCESS_TOKEN={your token here}
+```
+(a token can be generated easily with [this python script.](https://github.com/MikunoNaka/mal-authtoken-generator))
+3. Run macli with `./macli`
+
+NOTE: currently, it looks for the .env file in the PWD, but a token can also be passed with
+``` shell
+export ACCESS_TOKEN={your token here}
+```
+for use inside other directories. (this way of handling the token is going to change)
