+# Getting environment up and running
+
+If you want to get quicky up and runing, keeping sources on your computer
+and using docker as a as a perdictable build system you can run:
+```bash
+./build-ros-image.sh
+./set-me-up.sh
+```
+
+You can skip running `build-ros-image.sh` if the image is already built.
+
+This `set-me-up.sh` script will do the following:
+- Run a docker container
+- Copy the built workspace to the destination folder of choice
+- Stop the container
+
+Note that if you want to change the remote to SSH or your fork you'll need to edit the origin in the cloned repos.
+For instance, in the `tsdf-plusplus` project use something like:tsdf-plusplus.git
+```bash
+git remote set-url origin [email protected]:ethz-asl/tsdf-plusplus.git
+```
+
+You can confirm you have the right origin URL by running:
+```bash
+git remote show origin
+```
