 - Cassandra and SQLite for storing messages and user data respectively
+- Docker for easier deployments
 - SvelteKit and TypeScript for backend
 - TailwindCSS and ShadCN Svelte for frontend
 - SocketIO for communication between connected clients
+
+## 🐋 Deploying (Docker)
+
+To deploy with Docker, you will need to have both `docker` and `docker-compose` installed.
+
+1. **Pull down the `compose.yaml` file**
+
+   ```bash
+   curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arithefirst/svchat/refs/heads/master/compose.yaml -o compose.yml
+   ```
+
+2. **Edit the service details**<br>
+   Open `compose.yaml` in the editor of your choice and replace the following enviroment variables:
+
+   - `ORIGIN`: The URL of your production deployment (no trailing slash)
+   - `CASSANDRA_USER`: Database Username
+   - `CASSANDRA_PASSWORD`: Database Password
+   - `MINIO_ROOT_USER`: S3 Bucket Username
+   - `MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD`: S3 Bucket Password
+
+3. **Start the stack**
+   ```bash
+       docker-compose up -d # Starts detatched
+       docker-compose up # Starts attatched
+   ```
+4. **Done!**<br>
+   Yes, it's really that easy! You can now access your deployment at `http://hostname:3000`, where hostname is the hostname or IP Address of your machine.
+
+## 🚀 Deploying (Manual)
+
+> [!TIP]
+> This installation method is not reccomended. Unless you have a specific reason not to use Docker, we suggest you do so! Our docker image is kept fully up-to-date and gets re-built on every push to the repository.
+
+1. [**Setup Apache Cassandra**](https://cassandra.apache.org/doc/latest/cassandra/getting-started/cassandra-quickstart.html)
+2. [**Setup Minio**](https://charts.min.io/)
+3. **Clone the repo**
+   ```bash
+   git clone https://github.com/arithefirst/svchat
+   ```
+4. **Install deps**<br>
+   In this example, I use [`bun`](https://bun.sh), but any NPM compatible package manager should work just fine!
+   ```bash
+   bun install
+   ```
+5. **Run DB Migrations**<br>
+   Running the DB Migrations sets up the tables in the SQLite users DB, and allows for functional user authenticaton.
+
+   ```bash
+   bun run migrate
+   ```
+
+6. **Set Enviroment Variables**<br>
+   In order for the server to connect to Cassandra and Minio, the credentials need to be set in `.env`. You will also need to set the production URL of your instance, to make sure CORS dosen't throw a fit.
+
+   ```ini
+   # Example '.env' file
+   CASSANDRA_USER=admin
+   CASSANDRA_PASSWORD=admin
+   MINIO_ROOT_USER=minioadmin
+   MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=minioadmin
+   ORIGIN=http://localhost:3000
+   ```
+
+   > [!WARNING]
+   > The above DB and S3 credentials are just for example, and it is highly reccomended that you change them for security purposes.
+
+7. **Build**
+
+   ```bash
+   bun run build
+   ```
+
+8. **Start the server**
+
+   ```bash
+   bun run production
+   ```
+
+9. **Done!**<br>
+   You can now access your deployment at `http://hostname:3000`, where hostname is the hostname or IP Address of your machine.
