+Building on Unix systems
+=============================
+
+First of all we need to make sure that all dependencies are satisfied.
+
+This doc is trying to cover:
+* [Debian/Ubuntu](#debian-ubuntu) (contains packaging instructions)
+* [Fedora/Centos](#fedora-centos)
+* [Fedora/Centos](#mac-os-x)
+* [FreeBSD](#freebsd)
+
+Make sure you have all required dependencies for your system successfully installed.
+
+If so then we are ready to go!
+Let's clone the repository and start building the i2pd:
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/PurpleI2P/i2pd.git
+cd i2pd/build
+cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release # more options could be passed, see "CMake Options"
+make                             # you may add VERBOSE=1 to cmdline for debugging
+```
+
+After successfull build i2pd could be installed with:
+```bash
+make install
+```
+or you can just use 'make' once you have all dependencies (boost and openssl) installed 
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/PurpleI2P/i2pd.git
+cd i2pd
+make
+```
+
+Debian/Ubuntu
+-------------
+
+You will need a compiler and other tools that could be installed with `build-essential` package:
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install build-essential
+```
+
+Also you will need a bunch of development libraries:
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install \
+    libboost-chrono-dev \
+    libboost-date-time-dev \
+    libboost-filesystem-dev \
+    libboost-program-options-dev \
+    libboost-system-dev \
+    libboost-thread-dev \
+    libssl-dev
+```
+
+If you need UPnP support (don't forget to run CMake with `WITH_UPNP=ON`) miniupnpc development library should be installed:
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install libminiupnpc-dev
+```
+
+You may also build deb-package with the following:
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install fakeroot devscripts
+cd i2pd
+debuild --no-tgz-check
+```
+
+Fedora/Centos
+-------------
+
+You will need a compiler and other tools to perform a build:
+```bash
+sudo yum install make cmake gcc gcc-c++
+```
+
+*Latest Fedora system using [DNF](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNF_(software)) instead of YUM by default, you may prefer to use DNF, but YUM should be ok*
+
+Also you will need a bunch of development libraries
+```bash
+sudo yum install boost-devel openssl-devel
+```
+
+If you need UPnP support (don't forget to run CMake with `WITH_UPNP=ON`) miniupnpc development library should be installed:
+```bash
+miniupnpc-devel
+```
+> *Centos 7 has CMake 2.8.11 in the official repositories that too old to build i2pd, CMake >=2.8.12 is required.*
+> 
+> But you can use cmake3 from the epel repository:
+> ```bash
+> yum install epel-release -y
+> yum install make cmake3 gcc gcc-c++ miniupnpc-devel boost-devel openssl-devel -y
+> cmake3 -DWITH_LIBRARY=OFF -DWITH_UPNP=ON  -DWITH_HARDENING=ON -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=OFF
+> make
+> ```
+
+MAC OS X
+--------
+
+Requires [homebrew](http://brew.sh/)
+
+```bash
+brew install libressl boost
+```
+
+Then build:
+```bash
+make HOMEBREW=1
+```
+
+
+FreeBSD
+-------
+
+For 10.X  use clang. You would also need boost and openssl ports.
+Type gmake, it invokes Makefile.bsd, make necessary changes there is required.
+
+Branch 9.X has gcc v4.2, that knows nothing about required c++11 standart.
+
+Required ports:
+
+* `devel/cmake`
+* `devel/boost-libs`
+* `lang/gcc47`(or later version)
+
+To use newer compiler you should set these variables(replace "47" with your actual gcc version):
+```bash
+export CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc47
+export CXX=/usr/local/bin/g++47
+```
+
+CMake Options
+-------------
+
+Available CMake options(each option has a form of `<key>=<value>`, for more information see `man 1 cmake`):
+
+* `CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE` build profile (Debug/Release)
+* `WITH_BINARY`      build i2pd itself
+* `WITH_LIBRARY`     build libi2pd
+* `WITH_STATIC`      build static versions of library and i2pd binary
+* `WITH_UPNP`        build with UPnP support (requires libupnp)
+* `WITH_AESNI`        build with AES-NI support (ON/OFF)
+* `WITH_HARDENING`   enable hardening features (ON/OFF) (gcc only)
+* `WITH_PCH`         use pre-compiled header (experimental, speeds up build)
+
+Also there is `-L` flag for CMake that could be used to list current cached options:
+```bash
+cmake -L
+```
