-## Running
-Copy `config.example.json` to `config.json`, edit the values if needed, then `npm run build` and then `node reflection.js` to start it
-
-## Authentication
-Authentication is done via `SASL PLAIN`, the username is your mxid and the password is an access token from another session plus your server domain, separated by a `:` (so `access_token:matrix.org` if your server is matrix.org). Note this is the domain for `m.server`, not necessarily the homeserver domain. You can find this value by going to https://yourhomeserver.tld/.well-known/matrix/server.
