Having just done this, here are the steps:
flash microSD card with moode
insert in zeroW
power it up
wait a few minutes
check the wifi on your phone or PC, the Moode network will show up
select it and enter the password which is moodeaudio. your phone or pc will connect to it.
open browser, enter moode.local, hit go
now you are in the web UI for moode
select configure from the M menu top right
click network
Under the Wireless (WiFi) area, enter your home wifi SSID and password. Click Save at the top.
Reboot by going to the M menu top right, down to Power, and restart.
zero will reboot and connect to your home wifi
your phone or PC that was connected to the Moode wifi before will lose that connection and probably fall back to your usual home wifi setting
open browser, enter moode.local, bob's your uncle.
It works surprisingly well. I put together a fully wireless rig today with a 10,000mAh power bank and the zeroW doing wifi and bluetooth. As a 100% wireless streamer, it works incredibly well, all for well under $50.

One addendum:
At the line "open browser, enter moode.local, hit go":
This use of the .local pseudo-domain almost always works but not with a browser on an Android-based device.
Entering the preset IP address 172.24.1.1 instead should work on any device including Android-based ones.

Also "open browser, enter moode.local, bob's your uncle." won't work on Android either, solution less simple though since it means discovering what ip your router has assigned (by looking in the DHCP section of your router admin console, or using tools such as Fing).
