+## Project Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- [Go 1.20+](https://golang.org/dl/)
+- Docker and Docker Compose
+- Your Discord bot token
 
+### Configuration
+
+1. Clone the repository:
    ```bash
-   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/unccord-bot-go.git
+   https://github.com/cracked-unc-club/unccord-bot-go.git
    cd unccord-bot-go
    ```
 
-2. Install dependencies:
+2. Update the `.env` file in the project root:
+   ```
+   #DB config
+   DB_HOST=db
+   DB_PORT=5432
+   DB_USER=potclean
+   DB_PASSWORD=yourpass  # Change this to a secure password
+   DB_NAME=potclean
+
+   #Starboard config
+   STARBOARD_CHANNEL_ID=1282793245289484420  # Update with your channel ID
+   STAR_THRESHOLD=1
+
+   #JoinToCreate config
+   JOIN_TO_CREATE_CHANNEL_ID=1286835730705813574  # Update with your channel ID
+
+   #Discord config
+   DISCORD_TOKEN=yourtoken  # Replace with your actual bot token
+
+   # Lavalink Configuration
+   *JAVA*OPTIONS=-Xmx6G                                 
+   SERVER_PORT=2333
+   SERVER_ADDRESS=lavalink
+   LAVALINK_SERVER_PASSWORD=yourpass  # Change this to a secure password
+   ```
+   Replace `yourpass`, `yourtoken`, and the channel IDs with your actual values.
+
+### Building and Running with Docker
+
+1. Ensure Docker and Docker Compose are installed on your system.
 
+2. Build the Docker images:
    ```bash
-   go mod download
+   docker-compose build
    ```
 
-3. Run the bot:
+3. Start the services:
+   ```bash
+   docker-compose up -d
+   ```
 
+4. Check the logs to ensure everything is running correctly:
    ```bash
-   go run cmd/main.go
+   docker-compose logs -f
    ```
 
+5. The first time you run the bot, you'll need to authorize the YouTube integration:
+   - Look for a log message from the Lavalink container with a URL and code.
+   - Go to the provided URL (usually https://www.google.com/device) and enter the code.
+   - Use a burner Google account for this, not your main account.
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+- If the bot doesn't connect, check your `DISCORD_TOKEN` in the `.env` file.
+- For database issues, ensure the `DB_PASSWORD` is correct and the PostgreSQL container is running.
+- If Lavalink fails to connect, verify the `LAVALINK_SERVER_PASSWORD` matches in both the bot and Lavalink configurations.
+
+### Maintenance
+
+- To stop the bot: `docker-compose down`
+- To update: Pull the latest changes, rebuild, and restart the containers.
+- Monitor logs regularly: `docker-compose logs -f`
+
+Remember to keep your `.env` file and bot token secure. Never commit them to public repositories.
