 Due to the maturity of the project, we haven't yet created a release strategy.
-In order to install DSFX, we recommend building the project from source.
+We have, however, fully embraced the go ecosystem - so you can use the go
+toolchain to install the project from source. This is the recommended way to
+install the project, as it will always give you the latest version of the code.
 
 ### Dependencies
 
-In order to build the project from source, you will need to have git installed

 ### Running
 
-You can run the DSFX server using the `dsfx` command, which will be available in your `$GOPATH/bin`
+If you are familiar with the go toolchain, you can run the executables in the
-directory after installation. If you have added `$GOPATH/bin` to your `PATH`, you can run the server
+`cmd` directory directly. For other users, we recommend using the `go run`
-directly from the command line:
+command to run the project. This will automatically download and install the
-
+dependencies for you, and run the project in a single command.
-```bash
-dsfx
-```
-
-Optionally, you can run the command directly via the `go run` command if you prefer not to install
-the project globally. This can be done with the following command:
 
 ```bash
 go run koti.casa/numenorlabs/dsfx/cmd/dsfx@main
