+## Features
+
+`matrix-dicebot` is a basic dice rolling bot. It currently has the
+following features:
+
+* Rolling arbitrary dice expressions (e.g. 1d4, 1d20+5, 1d8+1d6, etc).
+* Rolling dice pools for the Chronicles of Darkness 2E Storytelling
+System.
+* Works in encrypted or unencrypted Matrix rooms.
+
+## Building and Installation
+
+The easiest way to install matrix-dicebot is to clone this repository
+and run `cargo install`. Precompiled executables are not yet
+available.
+
+Building the project requires:
+
+* Rust 1.45.0 or higher.
+* OpenSSL/LibreSSL development headers installed.
+* glibc (probably)
+
+### Why doesn't it build on musl libc?
+
+As far as I can tell, the project doesn't build on musl libc. It
+certainly doesn't build a static binary out of the box using the
+rust-musl-builder. This appears to be due to a transitive dependency
+of the Rust Matrix SDK.
+
+Any PRs to get the project or Matrix SDK to properly be built into a
+static binary using musl would be very useful.
