+Dialogger
+=========
+
+[![Dialogger](http://i.imgur.com/ojQbysnl.png)](http://i.imgur.com/ojQbysn.png)
+
+Dialogger is a simple dialogue graph editor. It saves your dialogue graph in
+two file formats:
+
+- **.dl** - JSON file including all visual layout information
+- **.dlz** - optimized JSON, easier and faster to parse
+
+It uses [NW.js](http://nwjs.io/) and [JointJS](http://www.jointjs.com/).
+
+Read more about the rationale
+[here](http://etodd.io/2014/05/16/the-poor-mans-dialogue-tree/).
+
+Running
+-------
+
+Binaries are provided, but if you want to hack on the project, first download
+the NW.js SDK, then:
+
+```shell
+cd /path/to/app
+/path/to/nwjs/nw .
+```
+
+See the [NW.js docs](http://docs.nwjs.io/) for more info.
