+# NorthstarMasterServer
+
+## Introduction
+
+The master server is responsible for centralizing game servers created by players, it also verifies that connecting players own an Origin account with Titanfall 2.
+
+There's no need to host your own master server to play games with other people, you can use [direct connect](../../../installing-northstar/using-northstar/direct-connect.md) or just setup a [normal server](../../../hosting-a-server-with-northstar/basic-listen-server.md) that announces itself to `northstar.tf`. This tutorial is aimed for those who want to contribute improvements to the code or test their own changes to the project.

+
+## Development
+
+A Development Master Server uses http requests, it should be used for development purposes on your local machine.
+
+### Installation steps
+
+1. Clone [NorthstarMasterServer](https://github.com/R2Northstar/NorthstarMasterServer).
+2. Copy the default [dev.env](https://github.com/R2Northstar/NorthstarMasterServer/blob/main/dev.env) to `.env` replace the ip with `127.0.0.1`.
+3. Run `npm install` && `npm run watch`.
+
+Your master server is now running, to connect to it you need to change some configuration files.
+
+Northstar default masterserver is https://northstar.tf, to point to a new location you need to modify this URL in the `autoexec_ns_server.cfg` and `autoexec_ns_client.cfg` config files.
+
+### Enabling HTTPS
+
+HTTPS should be used if you plan for other people to use your master server. It can be enabled pretty easy with [Caddy](https://caddyserver.com/). Download a Caddy binary and create a `Caddyfile` with the following content:
+
+```
+{$SHORTDOMAIN:localhost} {
+    reverse_proxy http://127.0.0.1:8080
+}
+```
+
+After configuring your DNS domain you can run it with `SHORTDOMAIN=example.com caddy run`. Caddy will automatically generate and maintain your certificates for you, check its documentation for more info: https://caddyserver.com/docs/
