This is nowhere near being usable, let alone stable. Please treat as a proof of concept while we work on getting this to a stable state. **Do not run Fathom in production yet unless you like spending time on it.** Things will keep changing for the next few months.

## Installation

For getting a development version of Fathom up & running, please go through the following steps.

1. Ensure you have [Golang](https://golang.org/doc/install#install) installed properly
1. Get code: `git clone git@github.com:usefathom/fathom.git $GOPATH/src/github.com/usefathom/fathom` 
1. Compile into binary & prepare assets: `make all` 
1. Register your user account: `fathom register <email> <password>`
1. Start the webserver: `fathom server` and then visit **http://localhost:8080** to access your analytics dashboard.

To start tracking, include the following JavaScript on your site and replace `yourfathom.com` with the URL to your Fathom instance (twice).

	};
	o=f.createElement('script'),
	m=f.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
