+# Falco development image
+
+This docker image can be easily generated starting from a clean Falco build.
+
+## 1. Clone the Falco repo ⬇️
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco.git
+```
+
+## 2. Prepare the build directory 🏗️
+
+### `falco-runner-image` tag
+
+The CMake command that we will see in the next section builds Falco locally on your machine, and push it into a docker image, so as you may imagine the final image that will run Falco must have a similar `GLIBC` version to your local one. For this reason, you have to use docker tags.
+
+The `nodriver.Dockerfile` will use the `falco-runner-image` tag to build the final image as you can see here:
+
+```dockerfile
+FROM falco-runner-image AS runner
+
+...
+```
+
+For example, if I build Falco locally on a un `ubuntu:22-04` machine I will instruct docker to use `ubuntu:22-04` as a final running image.
+
+```bash
+docker tag ubuntu:22.04 falco-runner-image
+```
+
+In this way the `nodriver.Dockerfile` will use `ubuntu:22-04` during the building phase.
+
+### Cmake command
+
+Now that we set the `falco-runner-image` tag, we are ready to build our Falco image. Starting from the project root:
+
+```bash
+mkdir build && cd build
+cmake -DUSE_BUNDLED_DEPS=On -DCREATE_TEST_TARGETS=Off -DCPACK_GENERATOR=TGZ -DFALCO_ETC_DIR=/etc/falco ..
+make dev-docker
+```
+> __Please note__: These cmake options `-DUSE_BUNDLED_DEPS=On -DCREATE_TEST_TARGETS=Off -DCPACK_GENERATOR=TGZ -DFALCO_ETC_DIR=/etc/falco` are the required ones but you can provide additional options to build the image according to your needs (for example you can pass `-DMINIMAL_BUILD=On` if you want a minimal build image or `-DBUILD_FALCO_MODERN_BPF=ON` if you want to include the modern bpf probe inside the image)
+
+## 3. Run the docker image locally 🏎️
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm -i -t \
+           --privileged \
+           -v /var/run/docker.sock:/host/var/run/docker.sock \
+           -v /dev:/host/dev \
+           -v /proc:/host/proc:ro \
+           falco-nodriver-dev
+```
+
+If you change something in the Falco source code you can simply rebuild the image with:
+
+```bash
+make dev-docker
+```
