+### How to Develop Odigos Locally
+The main steps involved when debugging Odigos locally are:
+
+- Use a Kind kubernetes cluster
+- Build custom images of Odigos and load them into Kind via:
+```
+TAG=<CURRENT-ODIGOS-VERSION> make build-images load-to-kind
+```
+
+- Ensure the TAG matches the Odigos version output from: `odigos version`
+- Restart all pods in the `odigos-system` namespace:
+```
+kubectl delete pods --all -n odigos-system
+```
+See the [Odigos docs](https://docs.odigos.io/intro) for the full steps on debugging Odigos locally.
