+# Theia RPM Build
+A demonstration of how to package the [Theia Cloud IDE](https://github.com/theia-ide/theia) into an RPM for easier distribution, using the [speculate](https://www.npmjs.com/package/speculate) module.
+
+This example uses a [multi-stage build](https://docs.docker.com/develop/develop-images/multistage-build/) design to first build and package Theia into an rpm. The rpm is then transferred to a new image to preserve a clean environment. This process is independent of docker and could be replicated in other build environments (i.e. on localhost).
+
+## Quickstart
+```console
+# build rpm
+> git clone https://github.com/theia-ide/theia-apps.git
+> cd theia-apps/theia-rpm-build-docker
+> docker build -t theia-rpm .
+
+# to verify RPM installation was successful
+> docker run -p 3000:3000 -it theia-rpm bash
+> theia --help                       # call Theia CLI directly
+> theia start --hostname=0.0.0.0     # start Theia
+```
