+# InfluxDB Admin Interface
+
+This is the built-in admin interface that ships with InfluxDB. The service is intended to have little overhead and minimal preprocessing steps.
+
+## How it works
+
+Static assets, located in the `assets` directory, are embedded in the `influxd` binary and served from memory using a simple fileserver.
+
+The admin UI itself uses [React](https://github.com/facebook/react) for the user interface to interact directly with the InfluxDB API, usually running on port `8086`.
+
+## Building
+
+The only step required to bundle the admin UI with InfluxDB is to create a compressed file system using `statik` as follows:
+
+```
+go get github.com/rakyll/statik  # make sure $GOPATH/bin is listed in your PATH
+cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/influxdata/influxdb
+go generate github.com/influxdata/influxdb/services/admin
+```
+
+The `go generate ./...` command will run `statik` to generate the `statik/statik.go` file. The generated `go` file will embed the admin interface assets into the InfluxDB binary.
+
+This step should be run before submitting any pull requests which include modifications to admin interface assets.

-# InfluxDB Admin Interface
-
-This is the built-in admin interface that ships with InfluxDB. An emphasis has been placed on making it minimalistic and able to be bundled with the server without adding lots of overhead or preprocessing steps.
-
-## Building
-
-The only step required to bundle this with InfluxDB is to create a compressed file system using `statik` as follows:
-
-```
-go get github.com/rakyll/statik
-$GOPATH/bin/statik -src=./shared/admin
-go fmt statik/statik.go
-```
-
-That should update the file located at `statik/statik.go`, which will get automatically build into the InfluxDB binary when it is compiled. This step should also be completed in any pull requests that make modifications to the admin interface, as it won't be run as a separate step in the release process.
