+Developpement environnement
+===========================
+
+Surveil's developpement environnement is based on Docker. There is a Makefile
+at  the root of the repository with commands to make it easier to use:
+
+* :bash:`make run`: Launch Surveil inside a container in non-interactive mode.
+* :bash:`make run-interactive`: Launch Surveil inside a container in interactive mode. You will have to start the services yourself.
+* :bash:`make kill`: Kill the active docker containers, if any.
+
+Configuration for the different services running in the Docker container are
+stored in tools/docker.
