+## Running Cwtch
+### Server
+#### Docker
+This repository contains a `Dockerfile` allowing you to build and run the server as a [docker](https://www.docker.com/) container.
+
+To get started issue `docker build -t cwtch:latest`, this will create 2 temporary docker containers, one to build the Tor daemon and one to build Cwtch. The compiled binaries will then be bundled into a new image and tagged as `cwtch:latest`.
+
+To run Cwtch in the foreground execute `docker run cwtch:latest`, you will see a small amount of output from Tor and then Cwtch will output your server address. When you `Ctrl + C` the container will terminate. To run Cwtch in the background execute `docker run --name my-cwtch-server -d cwtch:latest`. To get your Cwtch server address issue `docker logs my-cwtch-server`.
