+# Installation
+
+## Getting started (Native install)
+
+### Prerequisite
+
+- Node.js 6.x or up (test up to 7.5.0)
+- Database (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, MSSQL) use charset `utf8`
+- npm (and its dependencies, especially [uWebSockets](https://github.com/uWebSockets/uWebSockets#nodejs-developers), [node-gyp](https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#installation))
+
+### Instructions
-Before you go too far, here is the great docker repo for HackMD.
-With docker, you can deploy a server in minutes without any downtime.
+1. Download a release and unzip or clone into a directory
+2. Enter the directory and type `bin/setup`, which will install npm dependencies and create configs. The setup script is written in Bash, you would need bash as a prerequisite.
+3. Setup the configs, see more below
+4. Setup environment variables which will overwrite the configs
+5. Build front-end bundle by `npm run build` (use `npm run dev` if you are in development)
+6. Run the server as you like (node, forever, pm2)
