+Getting up and running using docker
+----------------------------------
+
+The steps below will get you up and running with a local development environment. We assume you have the following installed:
+
+* docker
+* docker-compose
+
+Open a terminal at the project root and run the following for local development::
+
+    $ docker-compose -f dev.yml up
+
+You can also set the environment variable ``COMPOSE_FILE`` pointing to ``dev.yml`` like this::
+
+    $ export COMPOSE_FILE=dev.yml
+
+And then run::
+
+    $ docker-compose up
+
+
+To migrate your app and to create a superuser, run::
+
+    $ docker-compose run django python manage.py migrate
+
+    $ docker-compose run django python manage.py createsuperuser
