+# Overview
+
+Guava is a Discord music bot with support for multiple different music and video streaming platforms. Guava is a part of >150 Discord servers and currently supports these services:
+
+- Spotify
+- YouTube (videos and streams)
+- SoundCloud
+- Bandcamp
+- Deezer
+- Twitch Streams
+- Vimeo
+
+Getting started is easy, simply invite Guava to your server and run `/help` to see what all Guava has to offer.
+
+# Want to self-host?
+Guava is built on Python and requires a Lavalink node running release `v4` or higher with the LavaSrc plugin. If you would like to configure Guava and run it on your own, follow the steps below.
+
+*P.S. Some information on starting your own lavalink node can be found [here](#lavalink-information)*
+
+On first run you will likely get a critical warning in your console, don't worry, this is expected. It will automatically create a `config.ini` file for you in the root of the directory with all of the necessary configuration options.
+
+Fill out the configuration options, then re-run the bot, and everything *should* just work. For information on each configuration option, look below.
+
+Field | Description
+--- | ---
+TOKEN | The token for your bot. Create a bot at [discord.com/developers](https://discord.com/developers)
+BOT_COLOR | Hex color code that will be used for the color of message embeds
+HOST | Host address for your Lavalink node
+PORT | Port for your Lavalink node
+PASSWORD | Password to authenticate into the Lavalink node
+
+# Lavalink Information
+
+As previously state, a Lavalink node running at least `v4` with the LavaSrc plugin is required. Due to the plugin requirement, it is unlikely that you will be able to use a free/public Lavalink node.
+
+For instructions on setting up a Lavalink node, look [here](https://lavalink.dev/getting-started/), and for instructions on the LavaSrc plugin, look [here]().
+<br>
+*P.S. Only the Spotify, Deezer, and YouTube sources/search providers are needed.*
+
+It is also highly recommended to setup IPv6 rotation in order to avoid blocks and other issues. There are helpful guides for this both [here](https://blog.arbjerg.dev/2020/3/tunnelbroker-with-lavalink) and [here](https://gist.github.com/Drapersniper/11fee08f91ea7174e0d8af12496f3443).
+
+An example of my personal `application.yml` file can be found [here](https://github.com/packetparker/Guava/applcation.yml.example).
