Is LDAP required?

README indicates LDAP support but it's not clear if it's required. Thanks for clarifying this.

Currently LDAP is required, as our design requirement was "must be integrated with our LDAP". There are some minor patches I can do that would allow local authentication to work in a rough way, but building a nice user experience for it would take more work.

@thomas-pike thanks for clarifying this!

Given the context is self-hosted, LAN-only access, I think that would be a nice alternative and a good way to get more adoption (and possibly contributions) for this application. Apache authentication comes to mind, but I am not familiar with your code.

I can help testing, documenting and translating, I'll keep subscribed here and watch any ongoing progress.

I've also made a pull request to add LDAP as a hard requirement in the list in the README.
