+
+# Overview
+Lila is the main component.
+
+System will be built from these main parts:
+
+* OVH ISP.
+
+* Debian Debian stable (Bullseye/11).
+
+* Lila.
+
+* Lila-ws.
+
+* Apache.
+
+* MongoDB.
+
+* Redis.
+
+* Java.
+
+* SBT.
+
+* Yarn.
+
+* Python.

+
+
+# Pre-Installation Setup
+First, you need to have a location to host the server. You will want a server
+with a minimum of 4 gigs of RAM. When the server is running, usage is low,
+but it takes awhile to compile, so more CPU/RAM will speed that up.
+
+For this example, we'll set up at OVH, which is the same Internet company
+that lichess.org uses.
+
+## Setup at OVH
+Go here and create an account. They may have regional websites as well:
