 ## Development
 
 ### Build the UI
-```
+```bash
 cd ui/frontend
 pnpm install
 pnpm watch # Will rebuild and watch for changes
 ```
 
-If you don't need the backend running because you are only making
-basic HTML/CSS/JS changes, directly open in your browser the built
-`ui/frontend/build/index.html`.
-
-### Build and run the server
-
-```
-cd ui
-cargo run
-```
-
-There are some optional configuration parameters described in the
-[ui README](./ui/README.md) which you may set in a `.env` file. The server will
-run with no configuration, but in order to load and save gists a GitHub token
-must be configured.

 ### Build or download the containers

+```bash
 cd compiler
 ./build.sh # If you want to test changes to the containers
 ./fetch.sh # If you just want the current playground
 ```

+> When running the server, you may see some docker warnings about missing containers. You can safely ignore them.
