+# Arch Install Guide
+
+YaCy has a [PKGBUILD in the
+AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yacy/) which greatly simplifies
+installation. You can install this PKGBUILD with an AUR helper or by
+hand.
+
+## Installation
+
+### Using an AUR Helper
+
+If you are using a full-featured AUR helper like
+[packer](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/packer/),
+[yaourt](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yaourt/), or another of that
+ilk, you can run
+
+    packer -S yacy
+
+or
+
+    yaourt -S yacy
+
+. Adjust for your specific helper.
+
+### By hand
+
+First, ensure that you have installed all the dependencies;
+specifically, you need `sudo`, `libcups`, `xorg-server`, and
+`java-environment`. Install these with pacman. Once this is finished,
+download and extract the PKGBUILD from the AUR. You can do this from
+your web browser
+([link](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ya/yacy/yacy.tar.gz)) and
+extract it using your favorite GUI tool, or you can run the following
+command:
+
+    $ curl https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ya/yacy/yacy.tar.gz | tar -xz
+
+Now `cd` into the folder that the tarball extracted to (most likely
+called "yacy") and run
+
+    makepkg
+
+. (Note: if you forgot to install the dependecies before, you should run
+`makepkg -s`.) This will build us a nice .tar.xz package which `pacman`
+knows how to handle. Once `makepkg` completes, install the package with
+`pacman`:
+
+    # pacman -U yacy-(YourVersion)-(YourArchitecture).tar.xz
+
+(replace YourVersion and YourArchitecture with the current version and
+your chip architecture (either i686 or x86\_64). Tab completion helps a
+lot here.)
+
+## Use
+
+To actually start YaCy, you need to start its daemon with systemd:
+
+    # systemctl start yacy.service
+
+YaCy needs about a minute to initialize, bootstrap, and in general get
+up and running. If you'd like the YaCy daemon to run automagically at
+boot, enable its service with systemd:
+
+    # systemctl enable yacy.service
+
+You're all set! Don't forget to open your firewall or set up port
+forwarding to contribute your index to the network!
