+## Dev tools pages
+
+This repository contains our dev tools pages.
+
+## Local Dev Setup
+
+Requires Node version 6.9.5 or higher & yarn v1.9.4
+
+### 1. Install dependencies for monorepo:
+
+Make sure you install Yarn v1.9.4 (npm won't work!). We rely on our `yarn.lock` file and on Yarn's support for `workspaces` in our monorepo setup.
+
+```bash
+yarn install
+```
+
+### 2. Initial setup
+
+To build this package and all other monorepo packages that it depends on, run the following from the monorepo root directory:
+
+```bash
+PKG=@0x/dev-tools-pages yarn build
+```
+
+Note: Ignore the `WARNING in asset size limit` and `WARNING in entrypoint size limit` warnings.
+
+### 3. Run dev server
+
+```bash
+cd packages/dev-tools-pages
+yarn dev
+```
+
+Visit [http://localhost:3572/](http://localhost:3572/) in your browser.
+
+The webpage will refresh when source code is changed.
+
+### 4. Code!
+
+There are some basic primitives we'd like you to use:
+
+1. `<Container>Stuff</Container>`: Use containers instead of divs,spans,etc... and use it's props instead of inline styles (e.g `style={{margin: 3}}` should be `margin="3px"`
+
+2. `<Text>Look ma, text!</Text>`: Use text components whenever rendering text. It has props for manipulating texts, so again no in-line styles. Use `fontColor="red"`, not `style={{color: 'red'}}`.
+
+3. Styled-components: See the `ui/button.tsx` file for an example of how to use these.
+
+4. BassCss: This library gives you access to a bunch of [classes](http://basscss.com/) that apply styles in a browser-compatible way, has affordances for responsiveness and alleviates the need for inline styles or LESS/CSS files.
+
+With the above 4 tools and following the React paradigm, you shouldn't need CSS/LESS files. IF there are special occasions where you do, these is a `all.less` file, but this is a solution of last resort. Use it sparingly.
+
+### Clean
+
+```bash
+yarn clean
+```
+
+### Lint
+
+```bash
+yarn lint
+```
+
+### Prettier
+
+Run from the monorepo root directory:
+
+```
+yarn prettier
+```
