+ATP (atproto.com) Development Quickstart
+========================================
+
+Setup javascript development environment, assuming you have a checkout of the atproto repo `$SOMEWHERE`:
+
+- on linux/macos, install `nvm` for your user to manage a fresh/ephemeral
+ nodejs environment, separate from any system-managed nodejs installation
+- `nvm install 18`
+- `nvm use 18`
+- `npm install --global yarn`
+- `cd $SOMEWHERE`
+- `yarn install --frozen-lockfile`
+- `yarn build`
+
+To enter the dev environment in a new terminal:
+
+- `nvm use 18`
+- `cd $SOMEWHERE`
+
+Run an atproto example PDS server (in memory), and create a test user:
+
+- (enter dev environment)
+- `cd packages/dev_env`
+- `yarn run start`
+- `> status()`
+- `> mkuser("hyde")`
+- `> user("hyde.test")`
+
+You should be able to fetch, eg, <http://localhost:2583/xrpc/com.atproto.getAccountsConfig> (depending on local port).
+
+The CLI doesn't work for me, but if it was working you would do something like:
+
+- (enter dev environment)
+- `cd packages/cli`
+- `yarn run cli --help`
+
+## HTTPie CLI Interaction
+
+Instead of the CLI, can use the `http` command (aka, HTTPie CLI). First do something like `export HOST=http://localhost:2583`
+
+ http get $HOST/xrpc/com.atproto.getAccountsConfig
+ => {
+ "availableUserDomains": [
+ "test"
+ ],
+ "inviteCodeRequired": false
+ }
+
