+> A high performance Minecraft server implementation written in C.
 
-# Goals
-* Pure performance: minimum resource usage for a full Minecraft server implementation
-* Drop-in replacement: compatible with Spigot API plugins via JNI, standard Minecraft world format (Anvil)
-* Extensibility: ease of modification, large plugin API
-* Stability: use good C programming standards to prevent server-breaking bugs

-# Status
+### Status
 
 Currently, version Minecraft 1.11.2 and 1.10.2 is supported. As of April 2019, this project is being refactored to meet higher standards of quality and stability. Feature development will resume afterwards, with Minecraft 1.14 support coming concurrently.

 * Low memory footprint (13 MB for a 400-chunk spawn and one player on a 64-bit system)
 * Block placing/breaking
 * Survival mode

-## Maybe One Day
-* Forge mod analog API to allow server-side reimplementation of Java forge mods in C
-* Protocol compatibility layer to allow several versions of the game without a third party tool
-* Reverse proxy dimension/world sourcing
+## Getting Started
+
+### Prerequisites
 
-# Development
 Basin uses `cmake` to build, install, and package.
 
-## Dependencies
+### Dependencies
 * [avuna-util](https://github.com/Protryon/avuna-util)
 * OpenSSL
 * JNI (if Java plugin support is enabled)
 
-## Compilation:
+### Compilation
+
+* Clone this project.
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/basinserver/basin.git
 ```
+* Make a folder called "build" in the Basin directory.
+
+```bash
 mkdir build
+```
+
+* Open a terminal inside of the build directory.
+
+```bash
 cd build
+```
+
+* Run CMake and target the root directory.
+
+```bash
 cmake ..
-make -j 16
 ```
 
-## Clean
-Within your build directory:
+* Use make.
+
 ```
-make clean
+make -j 16
 ```
 
-## Install
-Within your build directory:
+### Cleaning
+
+In order to get rid of the compiled executables, you will have to clean your directory with the following command:
+
+```bash
+make clean
 ```
+
+### Installation
+
+In order to install Basin, you will have to execute the following command after compiling the project:
+
+```bash
 sudo make install
 ```
 
-## Package
-Within your build directory:
+### Package
+
+In order to package Basin, you will have to execute the following command:
+
 ```
 cpack --config ./CPackConfig.cmake
 ```
 
-# Running Basin
+### Running Basin
+
 To run Basin, simply invoke the binary `./basin`. Ensure that the binary is located with the relevant data files (the JSONs).
