 ## Embedded System
-**System:** ArchLinux ARM
+
+### Build
+
+**Dependencies:**
+
+* clojure
+* leiningen
+
+**Build:**
+```
+[~/]$ git clone ...
+[~/doorlock/embedded]$ lein uberjar
+
+```
+The standalone JAR is now in `doorlock/embedded/target/doorlock-<version>-standalone.jar`.
+
+### Deploy
+**Embedded OS:** ArchLinux ARM
 
 **Dependencies:**
-* nodejs
-* npm
+* java
 * wiringpi-git (AUR)
 
 **Install as systemd service:**
+1. copy the standalone JAR to `/home/oursky/`
+2. copy `doorlock.service` to `/etc/systemd/system/`
+3. enable and start the service:
 ```
-[oursky ~/]$ git clone ...
-[oursky ~/]$ sudo cp doorlock/embedded/doorlock.service /etc/systemd/system/
 [oursky ~/]$ sudo systemctl enable doorlock
 [oursky ~/]$ sudo systemctl start doorlock
 ```
