-# Getting Started
-
-**Prerequisites (MUST):**
-
-- [Python 2.7+](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
-- [Node.js 23.1+](https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm)
-- [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/installation)
-
-### Edit the .env file
-
-- Copy .env.example to .env and fill in the appropriate values
-- Edit the TWITTER environment variables to add your bot's username and password
-
-### Edit the character file
-
-- Check out the file `src/core/defaultCharacter.ts` - you can modify this
-- You can also load characters with the `pnpm start --characters="path/to/your/character.json"` and run multiple bots at the same time.
-
-After setting up the .env file and character file, you can start the bot with the following command:
-
-```
-pnpm i
-pnpm start
-```
-
-# Customising Eliza
-
-### Adding custom actions
-
-To avoid git clashes in the core directory, we recommend adding custom actions to a `custom_actions` directory and then adding them to the `elizaConfig.yaml` file. See the `elizaConfig.example.yaml` file for an example.
-
-## Running with different models
-
-### Run with Llama
+- 📈 Business Process Handling
+- 🎮 Video Game NPCs
+- 🧠 Trading
-You can run Llama 70B or 405B models by setting the `XAI_MODEL` environment variable to `meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct-Turbo` or `meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct`
+## 🌍 Translations
-### Run with Grok
+
+Available Languages
-You can run Grok models by setting the `XAI_MODEL` environment variable to `grok-beta`

-# Local Inference Setup
+> **Note for Windows Users:** WSL is required
-### CUDA Setup
+### Edit the .env file
-If you have an NVIDIA GPU, you can install CUDA to speed up local inference dramatically.
+Copy .env.example to .env and fill in the appropriate values
```
-pnpm install
-npx --no node-llama-cpp source download --gpu cuda
+cp .env.example .env
```
-Make sure that you've installed the CUDA Toolkit, including cuDNN and cuBLAS.
-
-### Running locally
-
-Add XAI_MODEL and set it to one of the above options from [Run with
-Llama](#run-with-llama) - you can leave X_SERVER_URL and XAI_API_KEY blank, it
-downloads the model from huggingface and queries it locally
-
-# Clients
-
-## Discord Bot
+### Edit the character file
-For help with setting up your Discord Bot, check out here: https://discordjs.guide/preparations/setting-up-a-bot-application.html
+1. Open `src/core/defaultCharacter.ts` to modify the default character
-# Development
+2. To load custom characters:
+ - Use `pnpm start --characters="path/to/your/character.json"`
+ - Multiple character files can be loaded simultaneously
-## Testing
+### Start Eliza
-To run the test suite, you must got into each package:
+After setting up the .env file and character file, you can start the bot with the following command:
```bash
-pnpm test # Run tests once
-pnpm test:watch # Run tests in watch mode
-```
-
-For database-specific tests:
+pnpm i
+pnpm build
+pnpm start
-```bash
-pnpm test:sqlite # Run tests with SQLite
-pnpm test:sqljs # Run tests with SQL.js
+# The project iterates fast, sometimes you need to clean the project if you are coming back to the project
+pnpm clean
```
-Tests are written using Jest and can be found in `src/**/*.test.ts` files. The test environment is configured to:
-
-- Load environment variables from `.env.test`
-- Use a 2-minute timeout for long-running tests
-- Support ESM modules
-- Run tests in sequence (--runInBand)
+#### Additional Requirements
-To create new tests, add a `.test.ts` file adjacent to the code you're testing.
-
-## Docker
-
-For development purposes, you can run the docker container with the following command:
+You may need to install Sharp. If you see an error when starting up, try installing it with the following command:
```
-pnpm docker
+pnpm install --include=optional sharp
```
-This will drop you into a shell inside the docker container where you can continue to configure the instance
-
-and then you can start it with `pnpm start`
