 Getting MistServer onto your system
 ===================================
 
-We provide precompiled binaries for most common operating systems here: https://mistserver.org/download

 Using the "Copy install cmd" button will give you a command you can paste into a terminal to set up MistServer running as root under your system's init daemon (systemd recommended, but not required).
 
-You can also manually install, will instructions can be found in our manual: https://mistserver.org/guides/latest

 Compile instructions
 ====================
 
-We make use of cmake for compilation. The default configuration requires mbedtls and libsrtp2 to be installed on your system.
+The recommended build system for compiling MistServer is Meson.
+
+The project makes full use of Meson's support for "wraps" and all dependencies can be automatically fulfilled through this system. If a system-wide library is available (and compatible), that one will be preferred.
+
+The following command will create a subdirectory named `build` and set it up for compiling MistServer (assuming meson is installed on your system):
+
+```
+meson setup build
+```
+
+The default options should suffice in most cases, but a full list of possible compile options can be found by running `meson configure`.
 
-The version of mbedtls we require is a specific branch that supports DTLS and SRTP for WebRTC, which can be found here: https://github.com/livepeer/mbedtls/tree/dtls_srtp_support
+Then, to actually build:
 
-All compilaton options can be discovered and set through `cmake-gui`; more complete compile instructions will follow soon.
+```
+cd build
+ninja
+```
+
+That should compile MistServer to your build directory, and it can then be ran by running:
+
+```
+./MistController
+```
+
+See the "Usage" chapter below for more details on actually running MistServer.
+MistServer can be in any directory, as long as all its binaries (that you want/need) are in one directory together.
+You can (optionally) install system-wide (usually requires you to be root user or using `sudo`) by running:
+
+```
+ninja install
+```
 
 Usage
 =====
 
-MistServer is booted by starting the `MistController` binary, which then scans the directory it is stored in for further `Mist*` binaries and runs them to discover what inputs/outputs/processes are available.
+MistServer is booted by starting the `MistController` binary, which then scans the directory it is stored in for further `Mist*` binaries and runs them to discover what inputs/outputs/processes are available. (Yes, this means you can delete any binary you don't want/need and it will just do what you expect/want.)
 
-Running the controller in a terminal will walk you through a brief first-time setup, and then listen on port 4242 for API connections. Accessing port 4242 from a web browser will bring up a web interface capable of easily running most API commands for human-friendly configuration.
