-# MERN-template
-
-A website template using the MERN stack. The primary technology involved is:
-
-* React
-* Nodejs
-* MariaDB (with Sequelize)
-* Docker (with docker-compose)
-
-This template is designed to support the development of persistent browser based games (PBBGs), but it, and it's component microservices, can be used elsewhere.
-
-This template is released under the zlib license (see LICENSE).
-
-See the [github wiki](https://github.com/krgamestudios/MERN-template/wiki) for full documentation.
-
-# Microservices
-
-There are external components to this template referred to as "microservices". These can be omitted entirely by simply removing the React components that access them. These are also available via [docker hub](https://hub.docker.com/u/krgamestudios).
-
-* News Server: https://github.com/krgamestudios/news-server
-* Auth Server: https://github.com/krgamestudios/auth-server
-* Chat Server: https://github.com/krgamestudios/chat-server
-
-# Setup Deployment
-
-A clean install is this easy:
-
-```
-git clone https://github.com/krgamestudios/MERN-template.git
-cd MERN-template
-npm install
-node configure-script.js
-docker-compose up --build
-```
-
-# Setup Development
-
-To set up this template in development mode:
-
-1. Ensure mariadb is running in your development environment
-2. Run `mariadb sql/create_database.sql` as the root user
-3. Run `npm install`
-4. Run `cp .envdev .env` and enter your details into the `.env` file
-5. Execute `npm run dev`
-6. Navigate to `http://localhost:3001` in your web browser
-
-# Features List
-
-- Mainly one language across the codebase (JavaScript)
-- Full documentation
-	- Setup tutorial
-- Fully Featured Account System (as a microservice)
-	- Email validation
-	- Logging in and out
-	- Account deletion
-	- Password management
-	- JSON web token authentication

-	- Room-based chat (type `/room name` to access a specific room)
-- Moderation tools
-	- Permanently banning users
-	- Chat-muting users for a time period
-	- Users reporting offensive chat-content
-- Easy To Use Configuration Script
-	- Sets up everything via docker
-	- A default admin account (if desired)
-
-# Coming Soon
-
-- Full documentation

-
-# Coming Eventually
-
-- Fully Featured News Blog (as a microservice)
-	- Restore deleted articles
