-Rust Language Support plugin
-============================
+# Rust Language Support plugin
 
 This package is a WIP to provide language support for Rust.
+
+## Compiling
+
+### Get the ast-redux Rust library
+
+```
+git clone ssh://git@git.kde.org/scratch/egospodinova/ast-redux
+cargo build
+```
+
+This should create a folder called *target/debug*.
+
+### Build kdev-rust
+
+```
+export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/path/to/ast-redux/target/debug:$CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
+mkdir build
+cmake ..
+make
+```
