 ## Install instructions
 
+1. Update your Raspberry PI OS and install git
 
-Run these commands in the directory you want to put the app and press enter during the setup whenever it asks for confirmation
-```console
-sudo apt-get update
-sudo apt-get install git
-git clone https://github.com/fin-tic/fintic --recursive
+    ```shell
+    sudo apt update
+    sudo apt upgrade -y
+    sudo apt install -y git
+    ```
 
-cd fintic
-./setup.sh
+1. Clone the repo: `git clone https://github.com/fin-tic/fintic --recursive`
+1. Enter the repo: `cd fintic`
+1. Install Packages: `bash 01_setup_packages.sh`
+1. Install Python dependencies: `bash 02_setup_python.sh`
+1. Configure boot configuration: `bash 03_update_boot_config.sh`
+1. Reboot the pi: `sudo reboot now`
 
-```
+## Install the hotspot
 
-Now to turn off the audio circuit open the config file with 
-```console
-sudo nano /boot/config.txt
-```
-look for the dtparam=audio option and turn it to off, the line should look like this. And disable bluetooth, change temp limit:
-```console
-dtparam=audio=off
-dtoverlay=disable-bt
-temp_soft_limit=70
-```
-
-```console
-sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt
-```
-isolcpus=3
-
-
-enable ssh
-```console
-cd /Volumes/boot
-touch ssh
-```
-disable hdmi, add this line above exit 0
-```console
-sudo nano /etc/rc.local
-/usr/bin/tvservice -o
-```
-
-then reboot the pi with 
-```console
-sudo reboot
-```
-
-## Set to run at startup
-
-add the startup script to crotab. Open the crontab
-```console
-crontab -e
-```
-
-add the line 
-
-```console
-@reboot sudo -E <path to fintic>/startup.sh &
-```
-
-dont forget the ampersand!
-
-also make sure that the paths in startup.sh are correct for your install location 
-
-## Install the hotspot 
-```console
+```shell
 cd ~
 curl "https://www.raspberryconnect.com/images/hsinstaller/AutoHotspot-Setup.tar.gz" -o AutoHotspot-Setup.tar.gz
 tar -xzvf AutoHotspot-Setup.tar.gz
 cd Autohotspot
 sudo ./autohotspot-setup.sh
 ```
-Choose option 2, then option 7 to change the SSID and password (for some reason it didnt work with the default SSID and password).

+Choose option 2, then option 7 to change the SSID and password (for some reason it didn't work with the default SSID and password).
 
 Then you can connect to the network and go to http://fintic.local:1024 or http://10.0.0.5:1024 and enter wifi information, then reboot
   
  
-## Change the hostname 
+## Change the hostname
 
 To change the hostname (URL used to access the server) first open config
+
 ```console

 Then go to system options -> hostname and change it to e.g. fintic
 
 You then connect to the server using the url fintic.local:1024

 ## Run instructions
 
 ```console
 sudo -E python3 server.py
 ```
+
 in browser go to url http://raspberrypi.local:1024
 
-If it doesnt work because of a missing package try running setup.sh again, sometimes it fails to connect to the package repos
