+# Secure Scuttlebutt from Scratch
+[Back to index](#index)
+
+This aims to be the missing reference for those who wish to create a Secure
+Scuttlebutt client from scratch.
+
+## Discovery
+A good way to get started is to participate in local network discovery with a known working
+client on the same network.  The
+[Scuttlebutt Programming Guide](https://ssbc.github.io/scuttlebutt-protocol-guide/#local-network)
+is a good start, here, with a few things to note:
+
+1. Some clients advertise multiple addresses separated by semicolons (`;`).
+2. Some clients advertise alternative protocols than `shs` and use hostnames instead of
+IPv4 addresses.
+
+So be prepared to accept variations.
+
+## Secret Handshake, Box Stream, and RPC Protocol
+Now that two clients are aware of eachother, they need to complete a secret handshake.
+The [programming guide](https://ssbc.github.io/scuttlebutt-protocol-guide/#handshake)
+is once again a good reference.
+
+The box stream and RPC protocol can both be implemented from the
+[same documentation](https://ssbc.github.io/scuttlebutt-protocol-guide/#box-stream)
+without surprises.
+
+## Synchronizing Data
+So now you're discovering other clients on the local network, connecting, performing
+a secret handshake, and making remote procedure calls over box streams.  The next step
+is to start synchronizing feeds over the network.  The goal, after all, is to author
+messages in your local append-only log and have them show up in distant clients, or
+vice versa.
