+You need at least 512MB RAM to run the script.
+Scripts can be launched directly from a PeerTube server, or from a separate server, even a desktop PC.
+You need to follow all the following steps even if you are on a PeerTube server (including cloning the git repository in a different directory than your production installation because the scripts utilize non-production dependencies).
+
+### Dependencies
+
+Install the [PeerTube dependencies](dependencies.md) except PostgreSQL and Redis.
+PeerTube only supports NodeJS 8.x or 10.x.

+### Installation
