+# Preface
+
+This assume you have installed codius, if you havent please do so first. 
+
+# How to install codiusd-gui:
+
+This will install the GUI and once sucessfully started it will run on 127.0.0.1 on port 3300. You can SSH 
+redirect in, or you can add an NGinx config
+
+```bash
+cd /usr/lib/node_modules
+git clone https://github.com/codius/codiusd-gui.git
+cd /usr/lib/node_modules/codiusd-gui/
+npm install
+cp ./extra/systemd/codiusd-gui.service /etc/systemd/system/codiusd-gui.service
+systemctl daemon-reload
+systemctl enable codiusd-gui
+systemctl start codiusd-gui
+```
+
+Once you have started the codius-gui daemon it will be accessable thru a SSH portforwarding from your workstations. Some examples:
+
+```
+for windows: putty -ssh root@your.host.name -L 3300:127.0.0.1:3300
+for linux: ssh -L 3300:127.0.0.1:3300 root@your.host.name
+```
+
+Once you have connected and logged in, you will be able to open a browser and visit https://localhost:3300 to access the GUI website.
+
+
+# Add Nginx Config
+This is an optional step, as a replacement for using the SSH option. To keep it simple we use the same template as with Codius. In this example you will see a 'allow 127.0.0.1;'. You must add another line with your trusted IP address to gain access. Once you have added this configuration and reloaded Nginx, your GUI will be reachable at https://gui.your.host.name:444/ (note its running on port 444)
+
+```
+map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
+  default upgrade;
+  '' $http_connection;
