+
+Muse is a **highly-opinionated midwestern self-hosted** Discord music bot **that doesn't suck**. It's made for small to medium-sized Discord servers/guilds (think about a group the size of you, your friends, and your friend's friends).
+
+### Features
+
+- 🎥 Livestreams
+- ⏩ Seeking within a song/video
+- 💾 Local caching for better performance
+- 📋 No vote-to-skip - this is anarchy, not a democracy
+- 1️⃣ Muse instance supports multiple guilds
+- ✍️ Written in TypeScript, easily extendable
+- ↔️ Autoconverts playlists / artists / albums / songs from Spotify
+- ↗️ Users can add custom shortcuts (aliases)
+- ❤️ Loyal Packers fan
+
+### Design Philosophy
+
+I believe it makes much more sense to let Discord handle user permissions (whenever possible) rather than building them into a bot and adding additional complexity. Instead of only allowing users with a certain role to control Muse, Muse allows anyone who has access to its bound channel to control it. Instead of specifying the owner as a user ID in the config, Muse simply looks at the guild owner.
+
+### Running
+
+Muse is written in TypeScript. You can either run Muse with Docker (recommended) or directly with Node.js. Both methods require API keys passed in as environment variables:
+
+- `DISCORD_TOKEN` and `DISCORD_CLIENT_ID` can be acquired [here](https://discordapp.com/developers/applications) by creating a 'New Application', then going to 'Bot'.
+- `SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID` and `SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET` can be acquired [here](https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/applications) with 'Create a Client ID'.
+- `YOUTUBE_API_KEY` can be acquired by [creating a new project](https://console.developers.google.com) in Google's Developer Console, enabling the YouTube API, and creating an API key under credentials.
+
+Muse will log a URL when run. Open this URL in a browser to invite Muse to your server.
+
+#### Docker
+
+(Replace empty config strings with correct values.)
+
+```bash
+docker run -it -v "$(pwd)/data":/data -e DISCORD_TOKEN='' -e DISCORD_CLIENT_ID='' -e SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID='' -e SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET='' -e YOUTUBE_API_KEY='' codetheweb/muse
+```
+
+This starts Muse and creates a data directory in your current directory.
+
+**Docker Compose**:
+
+```yaml
+version: '3.4'
+
+services:
+  muse:
+    image: codetheweb/muse
+    restart: always
+    volumes:
+      - ./muse:/data
+    environment:
+      - DISCORD_TOKEN=
+      - DISCORD_CLIENT_ID=
+      - YOUTUBE_API_KEY=
+      - SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=
+      - SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET=
+```
