+## Introduction ##
+With the following instructions, mailGraph can be run in a Docker container.
+Every new version of mailGraph will also be deployed to Docker Hub.
+
+## Instructions - Plain vanilla deployment ##
+- Create a directory structure on your system as follows:
+  ```
+  mkdir /opt/Zabbix-Mailgraph
+  mkdir /opt/Zabbix-Mailgraph/config
+  mkdir /opt/Zabbix-Mailgraph/templates
+  ```
+- Create a new `config.json` in the config directory and configure accordingly (refer to the wiki for more detailed instructions or use the `config.json.template` as a boilerplate).
+- Deploy the mailGraph container, preferably using `docker-compose`.
+-- Adopt and configure the `docker-compose.yml` file to your needs;
+-- Configure `RESTART_POLICY=unless-stopped` in a file name `.env` (same directory as `docker-compose`).
+- Start the container: `docker-compose -D up`
+
+## Testing and Debugging ##
+- Display currently running containers `docker ps`
+- Execute `docker exec -it <container ID> sh` for a shell into the container
+- Following the instructions in the Wiki on troubleshooting and debugging
+- When done testing, `exit` the container
+
+## Periodic cleanup of images and logs ##
+In case you like to adjust the container to your needs, you can adopt and modiyfy the provisioned scripts and files in this directory.
+
+## Special thank you ##
