 ## Requirements
 
 * PHP 7
+* Redis
 * Composer
 * Web server
 
+Version 1.1 switched to using Redis for storage. If you want to use SQLite, you can use version 1.0.
+
 ## Installation
 
 ### Web Server
 
 1. Run the following commands:
-   1. `cp .env.example .env`
+   1. `cp .env.example .env` - adjust settings as needed
    2. `php artisan key:generate`
    3. `composer install`
-   4. `touch database/database.sqlite`
-   5. `php artisan migrate`
 2. Setup virtual host pointing to the /public folder.
 
-The above will setup Webhook Tester to use SQLite as a database. If you want to use another database type, take a look in the `config/database.php` file (SQLite will work just fine, even under heavy load.)
