 # laconic-console
+
+Instructions for running laconic registry CLI and console
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+* laconicd RPC and GQL endpoints
+
+## Setup
+
+* Clone the stack repo:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so fetch-stack git.vdb.to/cerc-io/testnet-laconicd-stack
+  ```
+
+* Clone required repositories:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconic-console setup-repositories
+  ```
+
+* Build the container images:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconic-console build-containers
+  ```
+
+  This should create the following docker images locally:
+
+  * `cerc/laconic2-registry-cli`
+
+## Create a deployment
+
+* Create a spec file for the deployment:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconic-console deploy init --output laconic-console-spec.yml
+  ```
+
+* Create a deployment from the spec file:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconic-console deploy create --spec-file  laconic-console-spec.yml --deployment-dir laconic-console-deployment
+  ```
+
+## Configuration
+
+* Inside the deployment directory, open `config.env` file and set following env variables:
+
+  ```bash
+  # TODO
+  ```
+
