## Getting Help With **pyShelf**
-If you have issues during initial setup please make sure you have a working Web Server (the pyShelf team recommends )
+If you have issues during initial setup please make sure you have a working Web Server (the pyShelf team recommends [NGINX](https://nginx.com), and that you have correctly setup your webserver to forward cgi requests to [uWSGI](https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Download.html). Additionaly uWSGI must be setup to serve the application. A sample NGINX config (**pyshelf_nginx.conf**), and (**uwsgi.ini**) are included in the project root.
+**
Ensure your Webserver has appropriate access to your install directory!
