+## Configuring
+
+This project usese environment variables to work. For most cases, the
+defaults work but some sensitive info like keys must be overridden. Copy
+the file in `config/env.dist` to `.env` in the project root and override
+the values.
+
+When running with `make run`, it'll pick up these values automatically.
+If you're doing it the hard way, you'll have to source them.
+
+## Running Locally
+
+You'll need [Docker][docker] to run the project.
+
+* Run the image with `make run`
+
+## Running locally the hard way

+way.

+2. Run with `npm start`
+
+## Generating documentation
+
+This project uses JSDoc to generate documentation. Generate everything
+with `npm run document`. The documentation will be generated in the
+`doc` directory.

+
+You can also do some other operations
+
+* Build the image with `make build`
+* Push and build the image with `make upload`
+* Clean the environment with `make clean`
