+# To Build Your AI
+Download the [`gameloop.py`](https://github.com/joshuafhiggins/connect4-moderator-server/blob/main/gameloop.py) and [`agent.py`](https://github.com/joshuafhiggins/connect4-moderator-server/blob/main/agent.py) files. It is heavily encouraged you only make changes to the `agent.py` file
 
-In order to run the example you need:
+In order to run your AI, you'll need:
 - Python 3
-- `pip install websockets`
-- `pip install pip-system-certs`
+- `pip install websockets` (Windows) or `pip3 install websockets` (Linux/macOS)
+- `pip install pip-system-certs` (Windows) or `pip3 install pip-system-certs` (Linux/macOS)

+# To Watch Games
 The visual client for observing games/tournaments as well as managing games can be found at [`connect4-moderator-observer`](https://github.com/joshuafhiggins/connect4-moderator-observer).
 
-The Google Sheet outlining the communication protocol can be found [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qPrNvB4-1jzvkaQXJcA1Z2OllpSQYmtMRfbOgSi4Yhw), for those of you who'd prefer to not write their AI in python
+# To Run the Server Locally
+- Install Git and the Rust programming language
+- `git clone https://github.com/joshuafhiggins/connect4-moderator-server.git`
+- `cd connect4-moderator-server`
+- `cargo run --release demo`
+
+In this mode, you'll play against a player named `demo` who makes moves at random. If your AI makes invalid moves then your match is terminated and kicked from the server. If during the tournament you make an invalid move, you will instead immediately lose your game.
+
+To connect to this server, use the address `ws://localhost:8080`
