README.md

+# VLC media player
+
+**VLC** is a libre and open source **media player** and **multimedia engine**,
+focused on **playing everything**, and **running everywhere**.
+
+**VLC** can play most multimedia files, discs, streams, devices and is also able to
+convert, encode, **stream** and manipulate streams into numerous formats.
+
+VLC is used by many over the world, on numerous platforms, for very different use cases.
+
+The **engine of VLC** can be embedded into 3rd party applications, and is called *libVLC*.
+
+**VLC** is part of the [VideoLAN project](https://videolan.org) and
+is developed and supported by a community of volunteers.
+
+The VideoLAN project was started at the university [École Centrale Paris](https://www.centralesupelec.fr/) who
+relicensed VLC under the GPLv2 license in February 2001. Since then, VLC has
+been downloaded **billions** of times.
+
+## License
+
+**VLC** is released under the GPLv2 *(or later)* license.
+*On some platforms, it is de facto GPLv3, because of the licenses of dependencies*.
+
+**libVLC**, the engine is released under the LGPLv2 *(or later)* license. \
+This allows embedding the engine in 3rd party applications, while letting them to be licensed under other licenses.
+
+# Platforms
+
+VLC is available for the following platforms:
+- [Windows] *(from 7 and later, including UWP platforms and all versions of Windows 10)*
+- [macOS] *(10.10 and later)*
+- [GNU/Linux] and affiliated
+- [BSD] and affiliated
+- [Android] *(4.2 and later)*, including Android TV and Android Auto
+- [iOS] *(9 and later)*, including AppleTV and iPadOS
+- Haiku, OS/2 and a few others.
+
+[Windows]: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html
+[macOS]: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html
+[GNU/Linux]: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/#download
+[BSD]: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-freebsd.html
+[Android]: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-android.html
+[iOS]: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ios.html
+
+Not all platforms receive the same amount of care, due to our limited resources.
+
+**Nota Bene**: The [Android app](https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-android/) and
+the [iOS app](https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-ios/) are located in different repositories
+than the main one.
+
+# Contributing & Community
+
+**VLC** is maintained by a community of people, and VideoLAN is not paying any of them.\
+The community is composed of developers, helpers, maintainers, designers and writers that want
+this open source project to thrive.
+
+The main development of VLC is done in the C language, but this repository also contains
+plenty of C++, Obj-C, asm and Rust.
+
+Other repositories linked to vlc are done in languages including Kotlin/Java [(Android)](https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-android/),
+Swift [(iOS)](https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-ios/), and C# [(libVLCSharp)](https://code.videolan.org/videolan/libvlcsharp/).
+
+We need help with the following tasks:
+- Coding
+- Packaging for Windows, macOS and Linux distributions
+- Technical writing for the documentation
+- Design
+- Support
+- Community management and communication.
+
+Please contribute :)
+
+We are on IRC. You can find us on the **#videolan** channel on *[Libera.chat]*.
+
+[Libera.chat]: https://libera.chat
+
+## Contributions
+
+Contributions are now done through Merge Requests on our [GitLab repository](https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/).
+
+CI and discussions should be resolved before a Merge Request can be merged.
+
+# libVLC
+
+**libVLC** is an embeddable engine for 3rd party applications and frameworks.
+
+It runs on the same platforms as VLC *(and sometimes on more)* and can provide playback,
+streaming and conversion of multimedia files and streams.
+
+
+**libVLC** has numerous bindings for other languages, such as C++, Python and C#.
