+### Build Dependencies
+
+Minio build depends on ``yasm`` and Go 1.3+
+
+##### Install yasm
+
+Yasm is a Modular Assembler used for compiling [Intel Storage Acceleration Library](https://01.org/intel%C2%AE-storage-acceleration-library-open-source-version)
+
+```sh
+$ sudo apt-get install yasm
+```
+##### Install Go 1.3+ (Ubuntu)
+
+[Download the archive](https://golang.org/dl/) and extract it into ``/usr/local``, creating a Go tree in ``/usr/local/go``. For example:
+```sh
+$ tar -C /usr/local -xzf go$VERSION.$OS-$ARCH.tar.gz
+```
+
+Choose the archive file appropriate for your installation. For instance, if you are installing Go version 1.2.1 for 64-bit x86 on Linux, the archive you want is called ``go1.2.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz``
+
+(Typically these commands must be run as root or through sudo.)
+
+Add ``/usr/local/go/bin`` to the ``PATH`` environment variable. You can do this by adding this line to your /etc/profile (for a system-wide installation) or ``$HOME/.profile``:
+```sh
+$ export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
+```
+
+##### Setting up ``GOPATH`` environment variable
+
+The ``GOPATH`` environment variable specifies the location of your workspace. It is likely the only environment variable you'll need to set when developing Go code.
+
+To get started, create a workspace directory and set GOPATH accordingly. Your workspace can be located wherever you like, but we'll use ``$HOME/mygo`` in this document. Note that this must not be the same path as your Go installation.
+```sh
+$ mkdir $HOME/mygo
+$ export GOPATH=$HOME/mygo
+```
+
+For convenience, add the workspace's bin subdirectory to your ``PATH``:
+```sh
+$ export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
+```
+
+For more detailed documentation refer [GOPATH](http://golang.org/doc/code.html#GOPATH)
+
+### Installing Minio (Source)
+
+#### Get directly from GitHub:
+
+Once we are finished the prerequisites in the previous step we now build minio
+
+```sh
+$ go get -u github.com/minio-io/minio
+$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/minio-io/minio
+$ make getdeps
+$ make
+...
+```
+
+#### Clone locally (for contributors):
+
+```sh
+$ git clone https://github.com/minio-io/minio
+$ cd minio
+$ make getdeps
+$ make
+```
+
+Because Go expects all of your libraries to be found in either $GOROOT or $GOPATH, it's necessary to symlink the project to the following path:
+
+```sh
+$ ln -s /path/to/your/minio $GOPATH/src/github.com/minio-io/minio
+```
+
+###  Contribution Guidelines
+
+We welcome your contributions. To make the process as seamless as possible, we ask for the following:
+
+* Go ahead and fork the project and make your changes. We encourage pull requests to discuss code changes.
+  - Fork it
+  - Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)
+  - Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')
+  - Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)
+  - Create new Pull Request
+
+* When you're ready to create a pull request, be sure to:
+  - Have test cases for the new code. If you have questions about how to do it, please ask in your pull request.
+  - Run go fmt
+  - Squash your commits into a single commit. git rebase -i. It's okay to force update your pull request.
+  - Make sure go test ./... passes, and go build completes.
+
+##### NOTE
+
+This document assumes that minio user is using Ubuntu 12.04 or 14.04 LTS release
