+# Miner
+
+This is a quick and dirty implementation. There's some hardcoded choices in there until I go back and update it or someone makes a PR.
+
+```
+# build container image of xmrig (mining software)
+docker build -t miner .
+
+# run simple wow miner
+docker run --rm -d --name miner miner <your wow address>
+
+# run big monero miner
+docker run --rm -d --name miner miner <your xmr address> xmr 8
+```
+
+See [start_mining](./start_mining) for details of inputs.
