+# Running using published Docker images
+
+Here we describe a way to run an Ente instance using a starter Docker compose
+file and using the pre-built Docker images that we publish. This method does not
+require you to clone the repository or build any images.
+
+1. Create a directory where you'll run Ente
+
+    ```sh
+    mkdir ente && cd ente
+    ```
+
+2. Copy the starter compose.yaml (and two of its support files) from the
+   repository onto your directory. You can do it by hand, or use (e.g.) curl
+
+    ```sh
+    # compose.yaml
+    curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ente-io/ente/main/server/compose.yaml
+
+    mkdir -p scripts/compose
+    cd scripts/compose
+
+    # scripts/compose/credentials.yaml
+    curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ente-io/ente/main/server/scripts/compose/credentials.yaml
+
+    # scripts/compose/minio-provision.sh
+    curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ente-io/ente/main/server/scripts/compose/minio-provision.sh
+
+    cd ../..
+    ```
+
+3. Modify `compose.yaml`. Instead of asking it to build Ente's server (museum),
+   we want to get it to pull and use the published Docker image.

+    -        GIT_COMMIT: development-cluster
+    +    image: ghcr.io/ente-io/server
+    ```
+
+4. Create an (empty) configuration file. Yyou can later put your custom
+   configuration in this if needed.
+
+   ```sh
+   touch museum.yaml
+   ```
+
+4. That's it. You can now start everything.
+
+   ```sh
+   docker compose up
+   ```
+
+This will start a cluster containing:
+
+* Ente's own server
+* PostgresQL (DB)
+* MinIO (the S3 layer)
+
+For each of these, it'll use the latest published Docker image.
+
+Alternatively, if you only want to run Ente's server, you can directly pull and
+run the image we publish to **`ghcr.io/ente-io/server`**.
