### How To Use:
- Install [node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/). Be sure to say `Yes` when asked about `Chocolatey`.
- Install [node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/). If on Windows, be sure to say `Yes` when asked about `Chocolatey`.
- Install git (if on Windows, install from [Git for Windows](https://gitforwindows.org/)
- Download a snapshot (either of master, or of any commit/branch/relase/tag etc)
- Extract zip somewhere and enter that directory with a command prompt
- Enter `zefie_wtvp_minisrv` subdirectory
- Verify you are in the same directory as `app.js`, then run `npm install`
- Check any configuration. Create your override `user_config.json`. Especally `service_ip`. See [user_config_README.md](user_config_README.md) and [user_config.example.json](zefie_wtvp_minisrv/user_config.example.json) for more information.
- **Note:** The intended use is for all custom config to be in `user_config.json` and any custom service files to go in `UserServiceVault`. If you do not care about potential issues with future `git pull`, and will manually add new upstream `config.json` entries, you could use the standard `ServiceVault` and `config.json`
- Run `npm start` (note: if you are using node version 17 or newer, and are getting errors, try `npm start17`)
- Run `npm start` (**note**: if you are using node version 17 or newer, and are getting errors, try `npm start17`)
- If you have trouble running it on Windows, try a Linux machine, Windows may need a full development enviroment or extra steps.
- Test with a WebTV Viewer or connect with a real box
- To connect with a real box, you will need to open ports in your firewall and have a way to connect your WebTV (and preferably reroute 10.0.0.1 to the server)
