 The easiest way to run Zebra is using [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/).

+> We recommend using `docker compose` sub-command over the plain `docker` CLI, especially for more advanced use-cases like running CI locally, as it provides a more convenient and powerful way to manage multi-container Docker applications. See [CI/CD Local Testing](#cicd-local-testing) for more information, and other compose files available in the [docker](https://github.com/ZcashFoundation/zebra/tree/main/docker) folder.
 
 ## Quick usage
 
 You can deploy Zebra for daily use with the images available in [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/zfnd/zebra) or build it locally for testing.
 
 ### Ready to use image
 
+Using `docker compose`:
+
+```shell
+docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up
+```
+
+With plain `docker` CLI:
+
 ```shell
-docker run --detach zfnd/zebra:latest
+docker volume create zebrad-cache
+docker volume create lwd-cache
+
+docker run -d --platform linux/amd64 \
+  --restart unless-stopped \

+### Running Zebra with Lightwalletd
+
+To run Zebra with Lightwalletd, we recommend using the provided `docker compose` files for Zebra and Lightwalletd, which will start both services and connect them together, while exposing ports, mounting volumes, and setting environment variables.
+
+```shell
+docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml -f docker/docker-compose.lwd.yml up
+```
+
 ### CI/CD Local Testing
 
 To run CI tests locally, which mimics the testing done in our CI pipelines on GitHub Actions, use the `docker-compose.test.yml` file. This setup allows for a consistent testing environment both locally and in CI.
