+# Setup instructions for local development
 
-There are many things that can be done with this project (see the "To Do" section), but sometimes it's the small things that count, so don't be afraid of contributing just a small spelling mistake.
+## 1) Install `git` on your system
 
-If you need help at all please contact and SRCT member. We want people to contribute, so if you are struggling, or just want to learn we are more than willing to help.
+`git` is the version control system used for SRCT projects.
 
-The project lead for this project is **Daniel Bond**. *dbond2@gmu.edu*
+### On Linux Based Systems
 
-Please visit the [SRCT Wiki](http://wiki.srct.gmu.edu/) for more information on this and other SRCT projects, along with other helpful links and tutorials.
+**with apt:**
 
-## Setup
+Open a terminal and run the following command:
 
-To get started, you'll need the following installed:
+    sudo apt update
 
-* [Git](http://git-scm.com/book/en/Getting-Started-Installing-Git)
-* [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/installation/)
+This retrieves links to the most up-to-date and secure versions of your packages.
 
-### Clone the srctweb codebase
+Next, with:
 
-Now, we're going to clone down a copy of the Go codebase from [git.gmu.edu](https://git.gmu.edu/srct/srctweb),
+    sudo apt install git
+
+you install `git` onto your system.
+
+### On macOS
+
+We recommend that you use the third party Homebrew package manager for macOS,
+which allows you to install packages from your terminal just as easily as you
+could on a Linux based system. You could use another package manager (or not
+use one at all), but Homebrew is highly reccomended.
+
+To get homebrew, run the following command in a terminal:
+
+    /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)
+
+**Note**: You do NOT need to use `sudo` when running any Homebrew commands, and
+it likely won't work if you do.
+
+Next, to make sure Homebrew is up to date, run:
+
+    brew update
+
+Finally we can install git with:
+
+    brew install git
+
+### On Windows
+
+We recommend that if you are on Windows 10 AE (Anniversary Edition) or above to make use of the
+Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). The following link should get you up and running:
+
+[https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install_guide](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install_guide)
+
+#### Contributing with Windows
+
+If you are not on Windows 10 or would rather prefer to not use the WSL you may download Git for
+Windows here:
+
+[https://git-scm.com/download/win](https://git-scm.com/download/win)
+
+I have also successfully ran the project with Docker on Windows, though you need
+access to Hyper-V which is only available on **"Professional"** versions of Windows.
+
+## 2) Clone the srctweb codebase
+
+Now, we're going to clone down a copy of the SRCTWeb codebase from [git.gmu.edu](https://git.gmu.edu/srct/srctweb),
 the SRCT code respository with SSH.
 
 **a)** Configure your ssh keys by following the directions at:
 
-[git.gmu.edu/help/ssh/README](https://git.gmu.edu/help/ssh/README).
+**[git.gmu.edu/help/ssh/README](https://git.gmu.edu/help/ssh/README)**
 
 **b)** Now, on your computer, navigate to the directory in which you want to download the project (ie. perhaps one called `~/development/SRCT`), and run
 
     git clone git@git.gmu.edu:srct/srctweb.git
 
-to be continued...

+## 3) Get SRCTWeb up and running with the method of your choice
+
+Now that we have cloned down the repo you can
+
+    cd srctweb/
+
+and get to working on setting up a development environment!
+
+### Docker
+
+Installing Docker on your system:
+
+* For macOS go here: https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/
+* For Windows go here: https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/
+* For your specific linux disro go here: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/
+  * Additionally, you will need to install docker-compose: https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/
+
+Run:
+
+    docker-compose up
+
+If that doesn't work, try:
+
+    sudo docker-compose up
+
+You should see that the server is running by going to [http://localhost:4000](http://localhost:4000) in your browser. Any changes you make to your local file system will be mirrored in the server.
