+How to Run the Application
+===========================
+
+This section provides an example of how to run the Federated Code application.
+
+
+Step 1: Create a Superuser
+---------------------------
+Run the following command to create a superuser:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    python manage.py createsuperuser
+
+
+Step 2: Create a Service Account
+---------------------------------
+Only superusers can create a Service account (e.g., VCIO or SCIO).
+
+1. Access the Django admin panel.
+http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/
+
+2. Create a new user through the admin interface.
+http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/auth/user/add/
+
+3. Assign the newly created user as a Service account.
+http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/fedcode/service/
+
+
+Step 3: Service Login and Git Repository Creation
+--------------------------------------------------
+Now you have a Service login ex `VCIO` use this credential to create a Git Repository
+https://github.com/aboutcode-org/vulnerablecode-data
+
+Visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/create-repo
+
+Step 4:
+--------
+To initiate a sync of the master branch, you can either click on the sync request
+button in the app or send an HTTP request directly to the endpoint using the auth service.
+The endpoint is: `repository/<uuid:repository_id>/sync-repo/`
+
+Visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/repo-list.
+
+
+Alternatively, you can integrate this action with GitHub Actions or any other
+CI tool to trigger the sync automatically whenever new data is pushed to the
+master branch.
+
+Here’s an example of how to send the request manually using curl:
+ex:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  curl -v -X POST \
+    -H "Authorization: Token your-auth-token" \
+    http://127.0.0.1:8000/repository/<uuid:repository_id>/sync-repo/
+
+
+**Note:** You can retrieve the service token after authenticating via the endpoint
+`api/v0/users/@<str:username>`.
+
+Step 5:
+--------
+The admin should regularly run the following commands, either manually or in a loop:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    python manage.py sync && python manage.py federate
+
+Users can now log in or sign up, create and review metadata, and vote for packages.
+
+Happy Federation, everyone!
