## Quick Start
### Prerequisites
- **Docker** with Docker Compose
- **16GB+ RAM** and **32GB+ storage**
- **Linux/macOS/WSL2** (Windows with WSL2 recommended)
### Three Simple Steps
```bash
# 1. Get the code
git clone https://github.com/uprightbass360/AzerothCore-RealmMaster.git
cd AzerothCore-RealmMaster
# 2. Configure your server
./setup.sh
# 3. Deploy
./deploy.sh # Always required - Supports ssh remote deploy or local
./status.sh # Optional - Shows health and accesibility of all containers and current user data
```
**First deployment takes 30-60 minutes** for database setup and client data download. Subsequent starts are much faster.
