## Installation
  * Clone the Teknik repository to your web root directory, or anywhere else you want to run Teknik from.

```
cd /var/www
git clone https://git.teknik.io/Teknikode/Teknik
```

  * Open the Teknik.sln file to build the project.
  * Copy the build files to your wwwroot directory.
  * Create a **ConnectionStrings.config** file in the **App_Data** directory and fill it with the following template and put in your sql server conenction details

  ```
  <connectionStrings>
    <add name="TeknikEntities"
      providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"
      connectionString="Data Source=<server name>,<port>\<sql server name>;Initial Catalog=<database>;Integrated Security=False;User Id=<username>;Password=<password>" />
  </connectionStrings>
