## Getting started

  1. Check out the git repository.

  2. Install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org).

  3. Install [Joyent SmartDC CLI utilities](https://github.com/joyent/node-smartdc) and the [Node.js json utility](https://github.com/trentm/json): `npm install -g smartdc json`.

  4. [Configure the SmartDC environment variables `SDC_*`.](https://github.com/joyent/node-smartdc#cli-setup-and-authentication)

  5. Run the bootstrap script: `./bootstrap.sh`.

  6. Choose a data center that supports Triton (EU-AMS-1, US-EAST-1, US-SW-1).

  7. Choose a package size - smaller is probably better initially.

  8. Wait.

  9. Enable access to the Consul UI (port 8500) via the firewall rules, setup a VPN or a [bastion host](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bastion_host).

  10. Profit!
