== Setting up reverse proxying ==
'''This is REQUIRED for UserVM as, for technical reasons (mostly because Computernewb is a HTTPS site and browsers don't like mixed HTTP and HTTPS content), only TLS-equipped WebSockets can be accepted'''
We strongly recommend you proxy your UserVM behind Nginx, to provide additional security and allow things like TLS. It also makes your VM look a lot cleaner, allowing people to access it on your main HTTP(s) port and on a subdirectory, like <code>https://example.com/collab-vm/</code> rather than <code>http://example.com:6004</code>. Here's a brief tutorial of how to set that up on the Nginx side.

The webapp should now be accessible at your website.
== Logging in as an admin (or mod) ==
Logging in is very simple. Just join the VM, and double click your username. Enter your admin or mod password into the prompt, and you should be authenticated and able to use staff actions.
== Getting your UserVM on the roster ==
Now you can have your UserVM put on the roster! Join our [https://discord.gg/a4kqb4mGyX Discord], and create a post in #support with the <code>uservm roster update</code> tag, including your VM's WebSocket URL. You can ping me (@elijahr.dev) if you'd like.
