+## Get started
+On your server, run these commands:

+git clone https://github.com/sirhypernova/c9launcher.git
+cd c9launcher
+cp config-example.json config.json

+Now, open config.json.
+It should look something like this:
+```json
+{

+    "session": "session.db",
+    "crypto": "a secret to encrypt workspace passwords",
