 # VSC Node
 
-< fill in >
+The VSC node is the core of the VSC ecosystem, holding the code necessary for keeping the VSC network operational.
 
-## Installation
+## Getting Involved
 
-### Docker compose
-
-Install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) and [Docker compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/).
-
-Download the Docker compose file [here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vsc-eco/vsc-node/main/deploy/docker-compose/docker-compose.yml).
-
-Assure that the Docker user has write permissions in the directory you startup the Docker compose file.
-
-Create an `.env` file according to the schema specified in the [.env.example](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vsc-eco/vsc-node/main/.env.example) file and put it next to the docker compose file.

-```
-
-Launch via `docker-compose up -d`.
-
-### Ansible
-
-Ansible is a [deployment automation](https://opensource.com/resources/what-ansible) tool.
-
-You can install the VSC node via an ansible playbook. [Follow the instructions](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html#pip-install) to install ansible on your machine. Sshpass is also a requirement (`apt install sshpass`). Note: it is only available on linux (you can also use it in WSL).
-
-The installation has been tested on **ubuntu**.
-
-To use the supplied ansible script you will need to define a target node. This can be done by creating an `inventory.yml` file and dropping it in the root of this project. 
-```yml
----
-vsc_nodes:
-  hosts:
-    raspberrypi:
-      ansible_host: 192.168.0.100           #changeme
-      ansible_user: pi                      #changeme
-      ansible_password: <mypassword>        #changeme
-      ansible_become_pass: <mypassword>     #changeme
-
-```
-
-The ansible playbook can then be launched via the command shown below.
-
-`ansible-playbook deploy/ansible/docker_install/playbook.yml -i inventory.yml`
-
-You will be prompted for various hive keys that need to be entered in order for your node to function properly. 
-
-Note: the last step of the script takes really long for the first time as it needs to fetch node modules. If you wanna check if your node is actively doing something check the `top` command.
-
-On a high level the script 
-
-1. installs docker and its prequesites
-1. copies over relevant files
-1. starts up the docker-compose file to launch the node
-1. register the update.sh script as a crown job to automatically keep the node up to date
-
-The bare_metal installation is currently not completed.
+If you are interested in operating the VSC node yourself and contributing to our growing network, explore the [deployment repository](https://github.com/vsc-eco/vsc-deployment) for all the details you need to get started.
