 GTK4 Revolt client
 
+## Installation
+
+First, make sure the following components are installed:
+
+* (The meson build system)[https://mesonbuild.com/Quick-guide.html]
+* (The Rust toolchain)[https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install]
+* (The GTK4 library)[https://github.com/ToshioCP/Gtk4-tutorial/blob/main/gfm/sec2.md]
+* (The Adwaita library)[https://github.com/GNOME/libadwaita]
+
+After installing the necessary components, set up `builddir`:
+```sh
+meson setup builddir
+```
+
+Once this is done, compile the app:
+```sh
+cd builddir && meson compile
+```
+
+Unfortunely, in some cases it is difficult to utilize `meson install` properly. In this case the user can just specify the prefix to the current build directory:
+```sh
+# inside builddir
+meson configure -D `pwd`
+```
+
+When this is done, the resources will be located inside the `share` folder on the build directory.
+
+If the app is not installed with `meson install`, you'll need to tell glib that the schemas reside inside the `data/` folder; therefore, run the client with this command:
+```sh
+# inside builddir
+XDG_DATA_DIRS="$XDG_DATA_DIRS:$PWD/share" ./src/mutiny 
+```
+
