+
+This is a simple Python3 API to help analysing BOVESPA stocks, it collects data (scraping) from the Fundamentus website (www.fundamentus.com.br), which contains important "fundamental indicators", and return it as JSON.
+
+This API uses the Flask microframework, but it can also be used directly on command line.
+
+## Development env setup
+
+Install the dependencies:
+
+`$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt`
+
+## Command line usage
+
+`$ python3 fundamentus.py`
+
+## HTTP API
+
+### Development API
+
+`$ python3 server.py`
+
+After starting the server, access the <http://127.0.0.1:5000/> URL on your browser.
+
+### Production API
+
+`$ gunicorn server:app`
+
+After starting the server, access the <http://127.0.0.1:8000/> URL on your browser.
+
+## Production deploy
+
+You can easily deploy this API to production, using [Heroku](https://www.heroku.com/):
+
+### Heroku initial setup
+
+* First, you need to install the Heroku CLI, if you haven't yet: <https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-cli>
+* Then, you need to login to it `$ heroku login`
+* Lastly, you need to create a heroku app `$ heroku create your-api-name-here`
+
+### Deploy
+
+You can deploy to heroku, with:
+
+* `$ git push heroku master`
+
+In case you are in a different branch, ex `develop`, you can deploy with:
+
+* `$ git push heroku develop:master`
+
+After deploying to heroku, you can access the API on <http://your-api-name-here.herokuapp.com/>
+
+### Production troubleshooting
+
+In case the production API on Heroku fails, you can visualize the logs with this command:
+
+`$ heroku logs --tail`
