+## Compilation
+1. Download and install the JavaCard 3.0.4 SDK from [Oracle](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javame-419430.html#java_card_kit-classic-3_0_4-rr-bin-do)
+2. Clone the Github repo for our fork of [jCardSim](https://github.com/status-im/jcardsim)
+3. Create a gradle.properties (see below for an example)
+4. Run `./gradlew build`

 ## Implementation notes
 
+* The applet requires JavaCard 3.0.4 or later.
 * The class byte of the APDU is not checked since there are no conflicting INS code.
 * Automated tests using JUnit 5 are included. The test require the application to be already installed. The first
   card terminal found by Java will be used, to please disconnect all card terminals except the one to be used for
