#Purpose of this article
I recently used Cluster. 
"Cluster. It seems to be fun on Twitter recently, but can i not join without VR?" 
Because it receives the occasional attention, here's a tutorial for everyone who wants to participate although it is hard to explain every time and for those who do not have VR, @Frog_woman compiled everything as a procedure and explanation as well as keeping the tips that people keep giving to newcomers.

#What is Cluster ?
Cluster is a tool that accelerates the withdrawal from society. 
The sentence above is a joke, but i will do my best to write down everything there is to say about the app.

[Cluster's main website](https://cluster.mu/index_en.html)
With this app you can actually enjoy talking to people who live far away from you, this is really helpful for large events or even the occasional meeting.

#Do i need VR to use the app ?
You do not, it is not obligatory.

#OS Support
##Windows
* Windows 10
* To use some of the functions .NET Framework 3.5 is necessary.

##Mac
* OS X 10.10 or Later
* macOS Sierra or Later

Installation on both platforms are straightforward.

#Account Creation

##Room Creation
If you create the room as private, only the people who have the room URL will be able to join.
For now, rooms set as "Open" will not show anywhere, but there is going to be a public list soon.

So, for now, the room will be set as private since the only way to have people join is to share the room URL.
After you chose a name for your room, click the "Create" button.

##My Room settings
