+# mod_webgate
+mod_webgate is a basic request verification challenge intended to minimalize traffic created by various bots.
+It is implemented as [Apache httpd](https://httpd.apache.org) module.
+
+## Installation
+The intended way of installing this module is via the `apxs` utility. It can automatically build shared object with module by
+passing appropriate flags to the C compiler and linker, install built module and activate it.
+
+The following command should be used to build, install and activate the module:
+```console
+apxs -c -i -a mod_webgate.c
+```
+Depending on your system configuration it may be neccessary to run `apxs` as privileged user.
