+# 🎨 NeMo Data Designer Tutorial Notebooks
+
+This directory contains the tutorial notebooks for getting started with NeMo Data Designer.
+
+## 🐳 Deploy the NeMo Data Designer microservice locally
+
+In order to run these notebooks, you must have the NeMo Data Designer microservice deployed locally via docker compose. See the [deployment guide](http://docs.nvidia.com/nemo/microservices/latest/set-up/deploy-as-microservices/data-designer/docker-compose.html) for more details.
+
+## 📦 Set up the environment
+
+We will use the `uv` package manager to set up our environment and install the necessary dependencies. If you don't have `uv` installed, you can follow the installation instructions from the [uv documentation](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/).
+
+Once you have `uv` installed, be sure you are in the `Nemo-Data-Designer` directory and run the following command:
+
+```bash
+uv sync
+```
+
+This will create a virtual environment and install the necessary dependencies. Activate the virtual environment by running the following command:
+
+```bash
+source .venv/bin/activate
+```
+
+Be sure to select this virtual environment as your kernel when running the notebooks.
