-## Running locally
+## Setup
 
-### 0. Create an app
+### Option 1: Create a new app with the Slack CLI
 
-Create an app and add `myappdomain.com`as an [app unfurl domain](https://docs.slack.dev/messaging/unfurling-links-in-messages/#configuring_domains)  (or update the unfurl URLs in `metadata.py` with your domain). Also enable [Work Object Previews](https://docs.slack.dev/messaging/work-objects/#implementation) for your app.
+```bash
+slack init && slack run
+```
+
+### Option 2: Create a Slack App in the UI and copy over your tokens
 
-### 1. Setup environment variables
+Create an app on [https://api.slack.com/apps](https://api.slack.com/apps) from the app manifest in this repo (`manifest.json`).
 
-```zsh
-# Replace with your tokens
+Configure environment variables:
+```bash
+# OAuth & Permissions → Bot User OAuth Token
 export SLACK_BOT_TOKEN=<your-bot-token>
-export SLACK_APP_TOKEN=<your-app-level-token>
+# Basic Information → App-Level Tokens (create one with the `connections:write` scope)
+export SLACK_APP_TOKEN=<your-app-token>
 ```
 
-### 2. Setup your local project
-
-```zsh
+Install dependencies and run the app:
+```bash
 # Setup virtual environment
 python3 -m venv .venv
 source .venv/bin/activate
 
 # Install the dependencies
 pip install -r requirements.txt
-```
 
-### 3. Start the server
-```zsh
-python3 src/app.py
+# Start the server
+python3 app.py
 ```
