About The Project

Intellectual is an alternative frontend for Genius focused on privacy and simplicity.
Written in Rust, Intellectual is incredibly lightweight. Not requiring JavaScript and proxying all requests through the server, including images.

Intellectual is still very early in development and is lacking many features.
Check out the roadmap for what features will be coming next!

If there is a checkmark under "Cloudflare", that means the site is proxied behind Cloudflare.
This means they have the ability to monitor traffic between you and the server.

Deployment

Deploying

Docker

The easiest way to host intellectual is via Docker, and the included Docker Compose file. To create a new directory, download the docker-compose.yml, and cd into the directory, run the following command (Requires cURL 7.10.3 or newer)

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Insprill/intellectual/master/docker-compose.yml --create-dirs -o intellectual/docker-compose.yml && cd intellectual

By default, it'll bind to 127.0.0.1:8080. Once you're satisfied with the container, you can start it with

docker compose up -d

Native

If you don't want to use Docker, you can download the latest stable or nightly build from GitHub actions. Make sure to choose the version for your target operating system.

Append the -h flag when running to see all available arguments.

TLS

Intellectual supports TLS connections natively using rustls. To enable TLS, provide the --tls flag, followed by --tls-key-file and --tls-cert-file pointing to their respective files on disk.
