-## Setup as hosted by a publix twister proxy
+## Setup as hosted by a public twister proxy
 
+First we install basic dependecies
+
+```
 apt-get update
 apt-get install -y git curl nodejs nodejs-legacy npm
 curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh
+```
+
+Now we pull twister-core
+
+```
 git clone https://github.com/miguelfreitas/twister-core.git
 
 mkdir ~/.twister
 echo -e "rpcuser=user\nrpcpassword=pwd\nhtmldir=~/twister-react" > ~/.twister/twister.conf
 chmod 600 ~/.twister/twister.conf
+```
 
+Next are this repo and twister-proxy
+
+```
 git clone https://github.com/Tschaul/twister-react.git
 git clone https://github.com/digital-dreamer/twister-proxy.git
 
-npm install -g browserify react-tools forever
+npm install -g forever
+```
+
+We setup twister-proxy and pull the settings from this repo
+
+```
+cd twister-proxy
+npm install
+curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Tschaul/twister-react/master/docker/settings.json > settings.json
+cd ..
+```
+
+Next we need the start script from this repo and set the correct rights.
+
+```
+curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Tschaul/twister-react/master/docker/run.sh > run.sh
+chmod 777 run.sh 
+```
+
+For https to work we need certificates.
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/letsencrypt/letsencrypt
+
+./letsencrypt/letsencrypt-auto certonly --standalone
+```
+
+letsencrypt will ask you to provide an email address and your domain. It will then save your certificates in /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/ where example.com is your domain.
+
+As last step we have to tell twister-proxy where the certificates are
+
+```
+nano twister-proxy/settings.json 
+```
+
+Inside "Server" replace example.com by your domain in a the "ssl_*" properties. Press Crtl+O to save and then Crtl+X to exit.
+
+Now we can start it up. When starting for the first time it will pull the twister docker-image.
+
+```
+./run.sh
+```
+
+twisterd now needs a while (10min to 1h depending on your connection) to download the blockchain. You can check `top` to see if twisterd is still busy.
