+## Building
+### Dependencies
+You need to have
+1. a compiler
+2. make
+
+installed on your system. While clang is being used by default, you can also use another compiler (e.g. gcc) by running `export CC=yourcompiler` or by changing 'clang' at the top of `Makefile` and `dependency_setup.sh` (where the variable CC is defined) to your prefered compiler.
+
+To install the simple_hashtable library required for the Assembler, you can run the `dependency_setup.sh` file, or manually compile the library and place it in `lib/shash.o`.
+
+Finally, run make to get build the Assembler to `build/eipaasm`
