Simply clone the repository, build it with `cargo build --release` and run the `microbin` executable in the created `target/release/` directory. It will start on port 8080. You can change the port with `-p` or `--port` CL arguments.
To install it as a service on your Linux machine, create a file called `/etc/systemd/system/microbin.service`, paste this into it with the value of `ExecStart` replaced with the actual path to microbin on your machine.
