+== Getting started with jEveAssets. ==
+Before starting - ask yourself - do I want to be able to find my stuff in EVE Online? If your answer is NO!,
+stop reading - this is not for you. Any other answer: READ On!
+One of the most time consuming activities can be finding stuff - especially
+if you forgot it in the cargo hanger in a ship,or in a container in ship cargo bay.
+In game, those kinds of searches are difficult to do - efficiently, if at all.
+Fortunately, the data is available in the EPI API (footnote needed) and that data can be accessed
+using jEveAssets. (add jEveAssets ICON)
+So - to get started:
+a) Have JAVA on your system (Oracle or Adoptium (Opensource)) (add icons).
+Java-v8 (JVE8) is the version used to compile jEveAssets so JVE8 or later work.
+If it doesn't, submit a bugreport!! **//64-bit versions//** are recommended, for better memory management.
+b) Download jEveAssets. You can put the jEveAssets folder anywhere you fancy - as long as your JAVA binaries are located automatically (i.e., in your PATH environment variable).
+c) Since you didn't answer **NO** to the opening question - I'll assume that you have an
+EVE account - //alpha// or **OMEGA** - so now is the moment
+to start jEveAssets by double-clicking (W10, macos, Linux GUI) jeveassets.jar.
+If I recall correctly (irrc) this first time jEveAssets opens the dialog to add a character
+(no character or corp registered equals no assets to be seen)
+(add visuals)
