+# Run Trillian + STFE locally
+Trillian uses a database.  So, we will need to set that up.  It is documented
+[here](https://github.com/google/trillian#mysql-setup), and how to check that it
+is setup properly
+[here](https://github.com/google/certificate-transparency-go/blob/master/trillian/docs/ManualDeployment.md#data-storage).
+
+Other than the database we need the Trillian log signer, Trillian log server,
+and STFE server.
+```
+$ go install github.com/google/trillian/cmd/trillian_log_signer
+$ go install github.com/google/trillian/cmd/trillian_log_server
+$ go install
+```
+
+Start Trillian log signer:
+```
+trillian_log_signer --logtostderr -v 9 --force_master --rpc_endpoint=localhost:6961 --http_endpoint=localhost:6964 --num_sequencers 1 --sequencer_interval 100ms --batch_size 100
+```
+
+Start Trillian log server:
+```
+trillian_log_server --logtostderr -v 9 --rpc_endpoint=localhost:6962 --http_endpoint=localhost:6963
+```
+
+As described in more detail
+[here](https://github.com/google/certificate-transparency-go/blob/master/trillian/docs/ManualDeployment.md#trillian-services),
+we need to provision a Merkle tree once:
+```
+$ go install github.com/google/trillian/cmd/createtree
+$ createtree --admin_server localhost:6962
+<tree id>
+```
+
+Hang on to `<tree id>`.  Our STFE server will use it when talking to the
+Trillian log server to specify which Merkle tree we are working against.
+
+(If you take a look in the `Trees` table you will see that the tree has been
+provisioned.)
+
+We will also need a public key-pair and log identifier for the STFE server.
+```
+$ go install github.com/system-transparency/stfe/types/cmd/new-namespace
+sk: <sk>
+vk: <vk>
+ed25519_v1: <namespace>
+```
+
+The log's identifier is `<namespace>` and contains the public verification key
+`<vk>`.  The log's corresponding secret signing key is `<sk>`.
+
+Start STFE server:
+```
+$ ./server --logtostderr -v 9 --http_endpoint localhost:6965 --log_rpc_server localhost:6962 --trillian_id <tree id> --key <sk>
+```
+
+If the log is responsive on, e.g., `GET http://localhost:6965/st/v1/get-latest-sth` you
+may want to try running
+`github.com/system-transparency/stfe/client/cmd/example.sh`.  You need to
+configure the log's id though for verification to work (flag `log_id`, which
+should be set to the `<namespace>` output above).
