+#  `patch-db` Client
+
+This project contains the client modules necessary for any front end utilizing `patch-db`.
+
+## Build steps
+
+First, install `node_modules` locally to project. From the project root, run: 
+
+```
+npm --prefix . install
+```
+
+Next, build source from the project directory:
+
+```
+npm --prefix . run build
+```
+
+Then, update the repository which imports this client.
+For Start9 contributors, this would be in [embassy-os/ui](https://github.com/Start9Labs/embassy-os/tree/master/ui). Run the following command there:
+
+```
+git submodule update --init --recursive
+```
+
+Compare the commits fetched to your knowledge of what is current in `patch-db` Client.
+If they do not match for some reason, run:
+
+```
+git submodule update --init --recursive --remote
+```
