 # ⚙️ Installation
 
-Please follow the installation guide for your operating system:
+Choose your operating system's installation guide for detailed setup instructions:
 
 - [macOS Installation Guide](docs/installation/macos.md)
 - [Linux Installation Guide](docs/installation/linux.md)
 - [Windows Installation Guide](docs/installation/windows.md)
 
-For detailed development documentation and architecture overview, see:

-## Database
-
-Magick installs postgres by default. If you want to use a different database, you can change the database connection in the [`.env` file](.env)
-
-## Webhooks
+Each guide includes:
 
-Some connectors (like Github) require webhooks. In development, Magick uses [ngrok](https://ngrok.com/) to create a tunnel to your local machine. You will need to create an account and add your auth token to the [`.env` file](.env)

-### Deploy your own Postgres database
-
-To deploy your own database, we suggest using Supabase or another Postgres database. The current setup for events and documents requires the [`pgvector`](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/database/extensions/pgvector) extension to be enabled.
-
-The following documents should help you with setup:
-
-- [Connecting to Postgres](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/database/connecting-to-postgres)
-- [OpenAI Embeddings- Postgres Vector](https://supabase.com/blog/openai-embeddings-postgres-vector)
-
-### Initialize a new database
+For detailed development documentation and architecture overview, see:
 
-Magick uses [Feathers 5](https://feathersjs.com/) for backend, which in turn uses [Knex](https://knexjs.org/) for making database queries. We will offer a better database configuration experience in the future. For now, you will need to manually configure the database connection in the [`.env` file](.env) and then run the migration script.

+## Development Tips
 
-## Self signed certificates
+### Self-signed certificates
 
-Developing locally, it can be very helpful to have google chrome accept all self signed cetificates coming from localhost. To do this, simply paste the following snippet into chromes URL bar and enable the feature:
+For local development, you may want to have Chrome accept self-signed certificates from localhost. To enable this:
 
-`chrome://flags/#allow-insecure-localhost`
+1. Navigate to: `chrome://flags/#allow-insecure-localhost`
+2. Enable the feature
