+[![progress-banner](https://backend.codecrafters.io/progress/redis/ab7daa60-eb0f-488c-b673-f39fa85a173f)](https://app.codecrafters.io/users/codecrafters-bot?r=2qF)
+
+This is a starting point for Rust solutions to the
+["Build Your Own Redis" Challenge](https://codecrafters.io/challenges/redis).
+
+In this challenge, you'll build a toy Redis clone that's capable of handling
+basic commands like `PING`, `SET` and `GET`. Along the way we'll learn about
+event loops, the Redis protocol and more.
+
+**Note**: If you're viewing this repo on GitHub, head over to
+[codecrafters.io](https://codecrafters.io) to try the challenge.
+
+# Passing the first stage
+
+The entry point for your Redis implementation is in `src/main.rs`. Study and
+uncomment the relevant code, and push your changes to pass the first stage:
+
+```sh
+git commit -am "pass 1st stage" # any msg
+git push origin master
+```
+
+That's all!
+
+# Stage 2 & beyond
+
+Note: This section is for stages 2 and beyond.
+
+1. Ensure you have `cargo (1.88)` installed locally
+1. Run `./your_program.sh` to run your Redis server, which is implemented in
+ `src/main.rs`. This command compiles your Rust project, so it might be slow
+ the first time you run it. Subsequent runs will be fast.
+1. Commit your changes and run `git push origin master` to submit your solution
+ to CodeCrafters. Test output will be streamed to your terminal.
