 **NB:** In May 2023, the kcp project was restructured and components related to workload scheduling (e.g. the syncer) and the transparent multi cluster (tmc) code were removed due to lack of interest/maintainers. Please refer to the [`main-pre-tmc-removal` branch](https://github.com/kcp-dev/kcp/tree/main-pre-tmc-removal) if you are interested in the related code.
 
+## Quick Start for Development
+
+### Prerequisites
+- Go
+- kubectl
+
+### Running kcp locally
+
+#### Basic setup
+```bash
+# Option 1: Run directly with go
+go run ./cmd/kcp.go start
+
+# Option 2: Build binary first, then run
+make build
+./bin/kcp start
+
+# In another terminal, set up kubectl to use kcp
+export KUBECONFIG=.kcp/admin.kubeconfig
+
+# Verify it's working
+kubectl get workspaces
+
+# Or you can combine the export and kubectl command in one line
+export KUBECONFIG=.kcp/admin.kubeconfig && kubectl get workspaces
+```
+
+**Note:** When you run the `start` command for the first time, kcp automatically generates an admin kubeconfig file at `.kcp/admin.kubeconfig` and initializes the necessary data directory structure. The server listens on `https://localhost:6443` by default.
+
+#### Sample commands and outputs
+
+**Get workspaces:**
+```bash
+$ export KUBECONFIG=.kcp/admin.kubeconfig && kubectl get workspaces
+NAME             TYPE            REGION   PHASE          URL                                                      AGE
+test-workspace   test-extended            Initializing   https://192.168.1.32:6443/clusters/root:test-workspace   35h
+```
+
+**Get workspace types:**
+```bash
+$ export KUBECONFIG=.kcp/admin.kubeconfig && kubectl get workspacetypes
+NAME            AGE
+home            35h
+organization    35h
+root            35h
+team            35h
+test-base       35h
+test-extended   35h
+universal       35h
+```
+
+**Create and inspect a workspace:**
+```bash
+# Create a workspace
+$ kubectl create -f - <<EOF
+apiVersion: tenancy.kcp.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Workspace
+metadata:
+  name: test-workspace
+spec:
+  type:
+    name: universal
+EOF
+
+# Get workspace details
+$ kubectl get workspace test-workspace -o yaml
+```
+
