 ## Usage
 
-It's recommended to use the `blend-settings` UI, instead of the `blend` CLI.
+It's recommended to use the `blend-settings` UI, instead of the `blend` CLI.
+
+Both methods require `podman` as a dependency.
+## new script
+
+clone repo
+
+enter new folder
+
+mark script nonarchinstall as executable
+
+run script nonarchinstall.sh as sudo
+
+sudo ./nonarchinstall
+
+## Building Manually
+
+To build manually, you are going to need the following dependencies:
+
+pacman fakeroot git binutils npm electron(maunaully downloaded from github, see later) bzip2 make gcc wget curl systemd
+
+Install the dependentcies from your package manager except for electron
+
+i.e sudo dnf install pacman fakeroot git binutils npm bzip2 make gcc wget curl systemd
+
+Clone the repo for building blend:
+
+`git clone https://github.com/blend-os/blend-pkg`
+
+Download electron from https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/latest
+
+Extract the zip and rename it to electron22
+
+Navigate to Downloads:
+
+`cd Downloads`
+
+Copy it to /usr/lib (on mutable systems):
+
+`sudo cp electron22 -R /usr/lib`
+
+On immutable systems, you will need to edit the pkgbuild in blend-pkg to set a different directory
+
+Go to blend-pkg directory:
+
+`cd blend-pkg`
+
+Edit the file with the editor of choice:
+
+`<text editor> PKGBUILD`
+
+Edit the line to your correct directory:
+
+`electronVer="$(sed s/^v// /usr/lib/electron${_electronversion}/version)"`
+
+i.e on silverblue /var/usrlocal/lib/electron
+
+Navigate back to home:
+
+`cd  && cd Downloads`
+
+Then copy the content to the selected directory
+
+`sudo cp electron22 -R /var/usrlocal`
+
+Navigate back to the blend-pkg folder:
+
+`cd && cd blend-pkg`
+
+### Installing blend in Arch
+
+Install `podman`:
+
+`sudo pacman -S podman`
+
+Build the package:
+
+`makepkg -si`
+
+Execute `/etc/profile.d/blend.sh`  to set the path.
+
+Navigate to the following location:
+
+`cd /etc/profile.d/blend.sh` 
+
+Make the script executable:
+
+`chmod +x blend.sh`
+
+Run the script:
+
+`./blend.sh`
+
+Enable the blend-files service:
+
+`cd /usr/lib/systemd/user`
+
+`systemctl --user enable blend-files.service`
+
+
+##Non Arch
+
+Proceed building the app with
+
+makepkg --nodeps
+
+Once that is done, head over to #Installation
+
+## Prebuilts
+
+Download the two tar files under releases
+
+Mutable systems install npm from your distros repo
+
+Then use npm install electron -g
+
+Head to # Installation
+
+Immutable systems use below instructions for electron
+
+Download electron from https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/download/v24.2.0/electron-v24.2.0-linux-x64.zip
+
+Extract the zip and rename it to electron22
+
+Go to where you downloaded it
+
+cd Downloads
+
+Copy it to overlay for /usr/lib; in silverblue its /var/usrlocal/lib
+
+sudo cp electron22 -R /var/usrlocal/lib
+
+Head to # Installation 
+
+## Installation
+
+Install podman from your distro's repo.
+
+Extract the new tar files to the their own folders
+
+e.g. (blend-git... and blend-settings-git...)
+
+Create a new folder named workspaceBlend
+
+copy all the contents of the extracted tar files to workspaceBlend; merge the folders and skip the replace(dont need buildinfo,mtree or pkginfo)
+
+(so each extracted tar has its own usr directory, so copying that to workpaceBlend will merge them)
+
+Here comes another split
+
+On mutable distros,copy the usr folder to /usr and the etc folder to /etc; merge the folders
+
+Enter workspaceBlend
+
+cd workspaceBlend
+
+sudo cp usr -R /usr
+
+sudo cp etc -R /etc
+
+On immutable distros, rename the /usr folder to what you need based on the overlay filesystem setup you have
+
+On silverblue you would rename to usrlocal and copy to /var/usrlocal; merge the folders
+
+sudo cp usrlocal -R /var/usrlocal
+
+Do the same with /etc if you need
+
+You dont need to on Silverblue though so proceed as normal.
+
+sudo cp etc -R /etc
+
+run the /etc/profile.d/blend.sh  to set the path
+
+Go to location
+
+cd /etc/profile.d/blend.sh 
+
+Set the sh as executable
+
+chmod +x blend.sh
+
+Run the script
+
+./blend.sh
+
+Enable the blend-files service
+
+cd /usr/lib/systemd/user
+
+systemctl --user enable blend-files.service
+
+
+Thats the main Install, some goodies below
+
+To start on log in add the following to .bash_profile
