+Development
+===========
+
+You can use docker containers for development. Here's a guide how to setup `docker <https://developer.fedoraproject.org/tools/docker/about.html>`_ and `docker-compose <https://developer.fedoraproject.org/tools/docker/compose.html>`_.
+
+After your docker engine is set up and running, and docker-compose installed you can start whole system with a single command::
+
+    $ sudo docker-compose up
