+# Super Mario Odyssey: Online Server
+
+The official server for the [Super Mario Odyssey: Online](https://github.com/CraftyBoss/SuperMarioOdysseyOnline) mod.
+
+
+## Windows Setup
+1. Download latest build from [Releases](https://github.com/Sanae6/SmoOnlineServer/releases)
+2. Run `SMO.Server.exe`
+3. `settings.json` is autogenerated in step 2, modify it however you'd like.
+
+## Building (Mac/Linux Setup)
+
+Must have the [.NET 6 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download) and Git installed.
+Run these commands in your shell:
+```shell
+git clone https://github.com/Sanae6/SmoOnlineServer
+cd SmoOnlineServer
+# replace run with build to only build the server 
+dotnet run --project Server/Server.csproj -c Release
+```
+If you ran `dotnet build` instead of `dotnet run`, you can find the binary at `Server/bin/net6.0/Release/Server.exe`
+
+
+## Commands
+
+Run `help` to get what commands are available in the server console.
+Run the `loadsettings` command in the console to update the settings without restarting.
+Server address and port will require a server restart, but everything else should update when you run `loadsettings`.
+
+[//]: # (TODO: Document all commands, possibly rename them too.)
