+# Starship 
+
+End-to-end testing environment for fully simulated chains, powered by [Starship](https://docs.cosmology.zone/starship).
+
+
+## Initial Setup
+
+Ensure you have `docker`, `kubectl`, `kind`, and `helm` installed on your machine  For convenience, the following command will install dependencies:
+
+```sh
+make setup-deps
+```
+
+You will need a `kind` cluster:
+
+```sh
+make setup-kind
+```
+
+## Getting Started
+
+```sh
+# install helm chart and start starship service
+make install
+
+# expose ports on your local machine. useful for testing dapps
+make port-forward
+
+# stop the containers and port-forwarding
+make stop
+```
+
+To setup finish setting up Agoric, also run:
+
+```bash
+make fund-provision-poool
+```
+
+You can use these commands to fund an account and make a smart wallet:
+```bash
+ADDR=agoric123 COIN=100000ubld make fund-wallet
+ADDR=agoric123 make provision-smart-wallet
+```
+
+## Logs
+
+You can use the following commmands to view logs:
+
+```sh
+# agoric slogfile
+make tail-slog
+
+# agoric validator logs
+kubkubectl logs agoriclocal-genesis-0 --container=validator --follow
+```
