+# ZeroTierBridge
+
+A container to provide out-of-the-box bridging functionality to a ZeroTier network.
+
+## Running
+
+`docker build -t zerotierbridge .`
+`docker run --privileged -e ZT_NETWORK=NETWORK_ID_HERE zerotierbridge:latest`
+
+Once running, log into your ZeroTier interface and approve the new device. Click the wrench next to the name and select 'Allow Ethernet Bridging.' It's that easy!
+
+### Caveat: Architecture
+
+If you need to run this on a device with different architecture (a raspberry pi, for instance), then just edit line 3 of the Dockerfile.
+
+If you were using a Raspberry Pi 4, you would change this to `ARCH=arm64` and the container will pull the correct ZeroTier installer.
+
+## TODO
+
+- Add docker-compose.yml
+- Add kubernetes deployment YAML
