-```sh
-# Install build dependencies
-apt install -y cmake protobuf-compiler # Linux
-brew install cmake protobuf # macOS
+Deno can be used for many different applications, but is most commonly used to
+build web servers. Create a file called `server.ts` and include the following
+TypeScript code:
 
-# Build and install Deno
-cargo install deno --locked
+```ts
+Deno.serve((_req: Request) => {
+  return new Response("Hello, world!");
+});
 ```
 
-See
-[deno_install](https://github.com/denoland/deno_install/blob/master/README.md)
-and [releases](https://github.com/denoland/deno/releases) for other options.
-
-### Getting Started
-
-Try [running a simple program](https://examples.deno.land/hello-world):
+Run your server with the following command:
 
 ```sh
-deno run https://examples.deno.land/hello-world.ts
-```
-
-Or [setup a simple HTTP server](https://examples.deno.land/http-server):
-
-```ts
-Deno.serve((_req) => new Response("Hello, World!"));
+deno run --allow-net server.ts
 ```
 
-[More Examples](https://examples.deno.land)
+This should start a local web server on
+[http://localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000).
