 Guix. That is maintaining and improving the quality of many aspects of
 Guix, like packages for example.
 
+* Local Development
+
+Use the guix-dev.scm file to provide the dependencies.
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC shell
+guix environment -l guix-dev.scm
+#+END_SRC
+
+Then run the following commands:
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC shell
+./bootstrap.sh
+./configure
+make
+#+END_SRC
+
+After that, you can start the service via:
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC shell
+./pre-inst-env scripts/guix-qa-frontpage
+#+END_SRC
+
+Expect pages to load slowly since the QA frontpage won't have up to date
+cached data to use.
