## Installation

Setting up a new instance is easy, but it requires using Rust nightly.

1. Install `meep` with `cargo` via `cargo +nightly install --force meep`.
- If you're not using `rustup` but still have nightly, use `cargo install --force meep` instead.
- The `--force` flag ensures that you'll update any current installations to the latest version.
2. Run `meep` in a directory where you want it to create `meep.toml` and `meep.db`.
- You can also create a `Rocket.toml` which can be useful, e.g. for setting production templates.
- You can set a specific path for the configuration with the `MEEP_CONFIG` environment variable.
3. Install a set of templates to use in `templates/` within your working directory.
- You can configure this path in `Rocket.toml` (including per-environment).
- You can use the default templates in the repository as a starting point.
4. Edit the configuration in `meep.toml` and then re-run `meep`.
- You should always run production instances with `ROCKET_ENV` set to `production`.
- You should also make sure to deploy `meep` behind a proxy through `nginx` or `apache`.
