 # NodeJSBlog
-This is a project I did to recreate my word press blog using plane node js. If I were to 
-do this again, I would use PHP. NodeJS is great, however, it was a pain to deal 
-with all the asynchronous calls when trying to create a web page in a linear fashion.
 
-If you want to run this project, it requires Mysql, npm, and node to be installed. For 
-deployment I used a [Nginx](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-node-js-application-for-production-on-ubuntu-16-04) 
+This is a personal blog where I write about everything from projects to tutorials on sophisticated machine learning algorithms. 
+If you want to stay up to date with new posts, subscribe to my [RSS feed](https://jrtechs.net/rss).
+
+This project is a custom express application that uses pandoc to render latex/markdown files as HTML pages. 
+This site has its very own admin portal to manage posts and downloads.

+## Dependencies

+- mysql
+- node + npm
+- pandoc
+- nxinx (for https)
+
+## Running
+
+Installing the node-dependencies is as easy as running the npn install command:
+
+```
+npm install
+```
+
+All configurations are currentl found in the config.json file.
+In this file you specify things like port, sql connection, etc.
+
+There is a provided bash script that will run the application
+
+```
+chmod +x run.sh
+./run.sh
+```
+
+
+For deployment I used a [Nginx](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-node-js-application-for-production-on-ubuntu-16-04) 
 proxy to expose the node application running on port 8000 to port 80. This proxy is necessary
 because you can't run a node application as port 80 unless you are root, which would be a 
 security vulnerability.

 ## Projects Sites
+
 As I develop more projects I would like an easy way to add and host them on my website without having to create another sub-domain and generate more ssl certs. 
 I simply want the project site to be accessible under https://jrtechs.net/project_name.
