+# Local setup
+
+> **Note for macOS Developers**: If you are using macOS on Apple Silicon (ARM64) the DevContainer will **not** work. This is due to a limitation with the Azure Functions Core Tools (see [here](https://github.com/Azure/azure-functions-core-tools/issues/3112)). We recommend using the [Non DevContainer Setup](./NON_DEVCONTAINER_SETUP.md) instructions to run the accelerator locally.
+The easiest way to run this accelerator is in a VS Code Dev Containers, which will open the project in your local VS Code using the [Dev Containers extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers):
+
+1. Start Docker Desktop (install it if not already installed)
+1. Open the project:
+    [![Open in Dev Containers](https://img.shields.io/static/v1?style=for-the-badge&label=Dev%20Containers&message=Open&color=blue&logo=visualstudiocode)](https://vscode.dev/redirect?url=vscode://ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers/cloneInVolume?url=https://github.com/microsoft/Multi-Agent-Custom-Automation-Engine-Solution-Accelerator)
+
+1. In the VS Code window that opens, once the project files show up (this may take several minutes), open a terminal window
+
+## Detailed Development Container setup instructions
+
+The solution contains a [development container](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers) with all the required tooling to develop and deploy the accelerator. To deploy the Chat With Your Data accelerator using the provided development container you will also need:
+
+* [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com)
+* [Remote containers extension for Visual Studio Code](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers)
+
+If you are running this on Windows, we recommend you clone this repository in [WSL](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/wsl)
+
+```cmd
+git clone https://github.com/microsoft/Multi-Agent-Custom-Automation-Engine-Solution-Accelerator
+```
+
+Open the cloned repository in Visual Studio Code and connect to the development container.
+
+```cmd
+code .
+```
+
+!!! tip
+    Visual Studio Code should recognize the available development container and ask you to open the folder using it. For additional details on connecting to remote containers, please see the [Open an existing folder in a container](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers#_quick-start-open-an-existing-folder-in-a-container) quickstart.
+
+When you start the development container for the first time, the container will be built. This usually takes a few minutes. **Please use the development container for all further steps.**
+
+The files for the dev container are located in `/.devcontainer/` folder.
+
 ## Local deployment and debugging:
 
 1. **Clone the repository.**
