 Our main use case is to provide a distributed storage layer for small-scale self hosted services such as [Deuxfleurs](https://deuxfleurs.fr).
 
+## Development
+
+  1. Setup a rust/cargo environment
+  2. Run `cargo build` to build the project
+  3. Run `RUST_BACKTRACE=1 RUST_LOG=garage=debug ./target/debug/garage server -c ./config.dev.toml` to launch a garage test instance (data will be saved in `/tmp`, no encryption, only one instance)

 ## Setting up Garage
 
 Use the `genkeys.sh` script to generate TLS keys for encrypting communications between Garage nodes.
