 ## Run Dgraph and connect the Ratel web UI
 
-The easiest way to get Dgraph up and running in the cloud is using
-[Dgraph on Hypermode](https://hypermode.com/login). If you prefer a local
-development experience with Dgraph we recommend using the official Dgraph Docker
-image. Both options are described below.
+The recommended way to get started with Dgraph for local development is by using the official Dgraph Docker image. 
 
 In this section we'll create a new graph, then we'll connect our new graph to
 [Ratel](./glossary#ratel), the web-based UI for Dgraph.

-Ratel is a web-based Dgraph client for interacting with your graph. We'll use
-Ratel to execute DQL queries and update the graph schema.

-Navigate to [ratel.hypermode.com](https://ratel.hypermode.com) and paste the
-Dgraph connection string you copied in the previous step into the "Dgraph Conn
-String" text box in Ratel then select **Connect** to verify the connection and
-then select **Continue** to access the Ratel console.
