-## Running this project locally via Kubernetes
-
-This project includes kubernetes manifests that allow it to be deployed to a kubernetes cluster.
-
-To run this project in a local kind cluster:
-
-Drop into the nix environment that contains all of the relevant tools.
+## Getting Started Locally
+### STEP 1: Install Nix
+If you don't have Nix installed, you can follow [these steps](https://github.com/LCOGT/public-wiki/wiki/Install-Nix)
+### STEP 2: Enter the Nix Dev Environment
 ```
 nix develop --impure
 ```
-
-Create a cluster and container registry.
-```
-ctlptl apply -f local-cluster.yaml -f local-registry.yaml
-```
-
-Make sure you update the skaffold.env.changeme and k8s/base/secrets.env.changeme to include the fontawesome package token
-
+### STEP 3: Apply Configurations
 ```
-mv skaffold.env.changeme skaffold.env
-mv k8s/base/secrets.env.changeme k8s/base/secrets.env
+ctlptl apply -f local-registry.yaml -f local-cluster.yaml
 ```
 
-Then edit these and insert the token.
+### STEP 4: Start the Skaffold Dev Loop
 
-Finally, to build and deploy the service to the cluster we just created:
 ```
 skaffold -m app dev --port-forward
 ```
+After this step, you should be able to navigate to `http://127.0.0.1:8080` and run the application locally.
 
-This starts the skaffold dev loop, which will rebuild the Docker image on code change, and will re-deploy the artifacts automatically.
-
-The service will be available at http://localhost:8080
-
-
-### Customize configuration
-See [Configuration Reference](https://cli.vuejs.org/config/).
