 This is the repository for the Glide destination connector, written in Python.
 For information about how to use this connector within Airbyte, see [the documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/destinations/glide).
 
-## Local development
+## Development
+
+The active todo list is at [./todo.md].
+The gist of the Glide-specific code is in `/destination_glide/destination.py` and `/destination_glide/glide.py`.
 
 ### Prerequisites
 
-* Python (`^3.9`)
-* Poetry (`^1.7`) - installation instructions [here](https://python-poetry.org/docs/#installation)
+- Python (`^3.9`, tested recently with `3.12.3`)
+- Poetry (`^1.7`, tested recently with `1.8.3_1`)
+
+I used homebrew for installing these prerequisites on macOS.
+
+### Unit Tests
+
+The unit tests for that code are in `/destination-glide/unit_tests`. To run them run:
+
+```sh
+./scripts/test-unit.sh
+```
+
+### Integration Tests
+
+The destination has a configuration in `/secrets/config.json`. That file must confirm to the configuration specification in `/destination_glide/spec.json`. It should be something like:
+
+```json
+{
+  "api_host": "http://localhost:5005",
+  "api_path_root": "api",
+  "api_key": "decafbad-1234-1234-1234-decafbad"
+}
+```
+
+The spec also specifies the configuration UI within the Airbyte product itself for configuring the destination.
+
+There are a set of simple integration tests that Airbyte provides that can be triggered with the following scripts:
+
+```sh
+./scripts/dev-check.sh
+./scripts/dev-spec.sh
+./scripts/dev-write.sh
+```
+
+These simply call commands that Airbyte provides in their connector template. The dev-write one appears to be the most comprehensive, but I've struggled to get that one to consistently run (see TODO).
+
+### Build & Deployment
+
+The Airbyte destination is packed as Docker image. This script uses Airbyte-provided tooling named `airbyte-ci` that leverages the same tooling they use in their CI pipeline to build the container.
+
+To install the tooling see [`airbyte-ci` README in this repo](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/blob/master/airbyte-ci/connectors/pipelines/README.md) This worked for me other than to make it work on macOS with homebrew-provided python, I don't have `python` on my path only `python3` so I had to change that in a couple places in the `Makefile` in the root of this repo.
 
+```sh
+./scripts/build-docker-image.sh
+```
+
+We are currently deploying this to a public repository for ease of access from an Airbyte OSS instance. To deploy it to a docker container registry use the script at:
+
+```sh
+./scripts/push-docker-image.sh
+```
+
+### Running in Airbyte OSS Locally
+
+To install Airbyte follow the guide at https://docs.airbyte.com/deploying-airbyte/quickstart. On macOS this uses homebrew to install k8s kind locally and get an airbyte cluster running. It took a while but worked smoothly for me. I am currently using `airbytehq/tap/abctl (0.5.0)`.
+
+Once install it should be available at http://localhost:8000/. You should have been prompted for username/pw during install.
+
+### Installing Glide Destination in Airbyte OSS
+
+To install the destination into Airbyte OSS follow these steps:
 
+1. Click on **Settings** on the far left then select **Destinations** in the sub-panel. You should see a list of **Available destination connectors**.
+2. At the top click the **+ New Connector** button fill in the fields. The **Docker repository name** and **Docker image tag** are the important bits.
+
+Once installed, you can upgrade it to a new version by visiting the same settings page and changing the tag in the **Change to** box and clicking the **Change** button.
