 4. Run `openssl rand -hex 16 | sed -E 's/(.*)/HD_SESSION_SECRET=\1/' >> .env` to generate a session secret if you have not set one manually before.

-## Preparing for running the frontend code
 
-**ToDo:** Document how to set up development environment using docker.
+## Running backend and frontend together
 
-1. Clone the repository with `git clone https://github.com/hedgedoc/react-client.git`
-   (cloning is the preferred way, but you can also download and unzip a release)
-
-2. Enter the directory and run `yarn install`.
-
-## Running HedgeDoc with auto-reload
-
-We will run HedgeDoc in development mode, which means the backend and frontend will automatically rebuild or restart when you make changes.
-
-The commands will stay active in your terminal, so you will need multiple tabs
-to run both at the same time.
-
-1. Enter the `react-frontend` directory and use `yarn start:for-real-backend` if you want webpack to continuously rebuild the frontend code. The frontend will expect a running backend at port 3000.
-   
-   **Note:** You can run `yarn start` to start a frontend with an integrated, mocked API. This may support more features than the real backend.
-
-2. To start the server in auto-reload mode, enter the `hedgedoc` directory and run `env NODE_ENV=development yarn start:dev`.
-
-## Testing
-
-- After starting both frontend and backend, HedgeDoc will be available at `http://localhost:3000`.
-
-**Note:** If you only started the frontend, it will be available at `http://localhost:3001`.
-
-**Note:** If you want to use HedgeDoc with the real backend, point your browser at `http://localhost:3000`, as the backend proxies requests to the frontend and you'll get CORS errors if you try to use the frontend directly.
+The documentation for setting up the frontend and how to use it and the backend together can be found in the [frontend repository README](https://github.com/hedgedoc/react-client/blob/main/README.md).
