+* Operating System Support
+
+Currently, Shackle Shell only supports running on Linux.
+
+It will likely work on other Unix-like platforms, such as MacOS, but this is not
+currently tested, and there are currently no plans to do so. I would not expect
+it to work on Windows.
 
 * Development Guide
 
-# TODO
+** Development Environment Setup
+
+- Rust
+  - This project is built using the Rust programming language, and its build
+    tool Cargo. Information on how to install these tools is available on [[https://www.rust-lang.org/learn/get-started][the
+    Rust website]].
+- C Compiler
+  - This is used to built one of the dependencies, libgit2.
+  # TODO how to get one?
+- Docker
+  - Some of the tests use Docker to create a simulated environment. This can be
+    obtained from your operating system's package manager, or the [[https://www.docker.com/][Docker
+    website]].
+  - Docker must be installed, with the =docker= executable on the path.
+  - Your user must have permission to use docker, including building and running
+    Docker containers.
+- Git
+  - Some of the tests use Git to test the end to end functionality of the
+    shell. This can be obtained from your operating system's package manager, or
+    the [[https://git-scm.com/][Git website]].
+  - Git must be installed, with the =git= executable on the path.
+- SSH
+  - Some of the tests use an SSH client to test the end to end functionality of
+    the shell. I have tested this with OpenSSH, which can be obtained from your
+    operating system's package manager, or the [[https://git-scm.com/][Git website]].
+  - with the =ssh= executable on the path.
+    
+If you're running Arch Linux, these are the steps you'll need to get your
+environment ready.

 - [X] proper licensing
 - [ ] all the getting started stuff in the readme
+- [ ] clean up crates.io-friendly readme
+  - It needs to be markdown, and probably not all the content of the "full" readme?
 - [ ] consider having the workspace root abstract so that --workspace isn't needed
 - [ ] publish to crates.io
