 # Send in Docker compose
+
 This repository provides a basic Docker compose configuration to host a public
 [Send](https://gitlab.com/timvisee/send) instance on your own domain.
 
@@ -15,14 +16,22 @@ This is configurable in your [`.env`](.env.example) file.
 
 See [docker-compose.yaml](./docker-compose.yaml).
 
-### Usage
-- Install Docker with Docker compose
-- Clone repository
-- Run `cp .env.example .env` and configure it (see [example](#example-env))
-- Run `docker-compose up`
-- Visit your domain
+*Note: for plain Docker usage without Compose, see: https://github.com/timvisee/send/blob/master/docs/docker.md*
+
+## Usage
+
+1. Install Docker and Docker Compose on your system: https://get.docker.com/
+2. Clone this repository `git clone https://github.com/timvisee/send-docker-compose && cd send-docker-compose`
+3. Run `cp .env.example .env` and edit `.env` and `docker-compose.yaml` to setup your configuration (see [example](#example-env))
+4. Run `docker-compose up` to start the containers (add `-d` to start it in the background)
+5. Wait 30sec for it to start, then visit your domain verify the UI is up and running, e.g. `https://send.example.com`
+

+Config options expecting array values (e.g. `EXPIRE_TIMES_SECONDS`, `DOWNLOAD_COUNTS`) should be set as bare comma separated values, and the first entry is used as the default.
+
+Other options should be set as unquoted strings, integers, booleans, etc., for example:
+```yaml

+      - VIRTUAL_HOST=${HOST}
+      
+      # time values are all in seconds, e.g. 365d * 60*60*24 = 31,536,000 seconds
