 Nodi is a Telegram bot for monitoring and Logging your Bitcoin Full-Node. The Bot was designed to be used with the Raspi Blitz Project (see <a href="https://github.com/raspiblitz/raspiblitz"><b>here<b></a>)
 
 ## Preparation
+Before you can start using Nodi you have to create your own Telegram bot (It's free and simple! 🎉). Also you need to install nodejs in the System you want to run the bot (Raspi Blitz for example).
+
+### create your own bot using the botfather
+The following steps describe how to create a new bot that you can use Nodi
+
+- Contact @BotFather in your Telegram messenger
+- To get a token, send BotFather a message that says /newbot
+- When asked for a name for your new bot choose something that ends with the word bot. For example, my_test_bot
+- If your chosen name is available, BotFather will send you a token
+- Save the token for later
+
+### install nodejs
+
+If you run the Bot on your Raspberry Pi with Raspi Blitz you can install Nodejs with following command
+```bash
+sudo apt update
+sudo apt install nodejs
+```
+This will install the current LTS version of Nodejs
+
+### add your bot to the environment file
+
+Now you have the token for your bot from step one the botfather. In the root directory create a new file .env and paste following into it:
+```env
+BOT_TOKEN="YOUR TOKEN HERE"
+```
