+You don't need to clone this repo if you just want to use the app without building from source! 
 Take a look at the [Open Notebook Boilerplate](https://github.com/lfnovo/open-notebook-boilerplate) repo with a sample of how to set it up for maximum feature usability. 
 
+### Running from source
+
+Start by cloning this repo and cd into it.
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/lfnovo/open-notebook
+cd open-notebook
+```
+
+Rename `.env.example` into `.env` and set up your API keys.
+Also, repeat the process for `docker.env` if you plan to run this using docker.
+
+```bash
+cp .env.example .env
+cp .env.example docker.env
+```
+
+Edit .env for your API keys.
+
+To run the source code locally and experiment with the code, you just need to run:
+
+```bash
+poetry install
+docker compose --profile db_only up
+poetry run streamlit run app_home.py
+```
+
+If you don't want to mess around with the code and just want to run it as a docker image:
+
+```bash
+docker compose --profile multi up
+```
