+# Loki Kafka Development Setup
+
+This directory contains the development environment for testing Loki with Kafka integration. The setup provides supporting services (Kafka, Grafana, and a log generator) via docker-compose, while Loki itself needs to be run manually from source code for development purposes.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+1. Start the supporting services (Kafka, Grafana, Log Generator):
+   ```bash
+   docker-compose up -d
+   ```
+
+2. Run Loki manually with Kafka configuration:
+   ```bash
+   # From the root of the Loki repository
+   go run ./cmd/loki/main.go --config.file=tools/dev/kafka/loki-local-config.debug.yaml --log.level=debug -target=all
+   ```
+
+   Note: Loki is not included in docker-compose as it's intended to be run directly from source code for development.
+
+## Services
+
+### Kafka
+- Broker accessible at `localhost:9092`
+- Uses KRaft (no ZooKeeper required)
+- Single broker setup for development
+- Topic `loki` is used for log ingestion
+
+### Kafka UI
+- Web interface available at http://localhost:8080
+- Monitor topics, messages, and consumer groups
+- No authentication required
+
+### Grafana
+- Available at http://localhost:3000
+- Anonymous access enabled (Admin privileges)
+- Pre-configured with Loki data source
+- Features enabled:
+  - Loki logs dataplane
+  - Explore logs shard splitting
+  - Loki explore app
+
+### Log Generator
+- Automatically sends sample logs to Loki
+- Useful for testing and development
+- Configured to push logs directly to Loki's HTTP endpoint
+
+## Configuration Files
+
+- `docker-compose.yaml`: Service definitions and configuration
+- `loki-local-config.debug.yaml`: Loki configuration with Kafka enabled
+  - Kafka ingestion enabled
+  - Local storage in `/tmp/loki`
+  - Debug logging enabled
+
+## Debugging
+
+### VSCode Configuration
+Create `.vscode/launch.json` in the root directory:
+```json
+{
+    "version": "0.2.0",
+    "configurations": [
+        {
+            "name": "Launch Loki (Kafka)",
+            "type": "go",
+            "request": "launch",
+            "mode": "auto",
+            "program": "${workspaceFolder}/cmd/loki/main.go",
+            "args": [
+                "--config.file=../../tools/dev/kafka/loki-local-config.debug.yaml",
+                "--log.level=debug",
+                "-target=all"
+            ],
+            "buildFlags": "-mod vendor"
+        }
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+## Common Tasks
+
+### View Logs
+```bash
+# All services
+docker-compose logs -f
+
+# Specific service
+docker-compose logs -f kafka
+docker-compose logs -f grafana
+```
+
+### Reset Environment
+```bash
+# Stop and remove containers
+docker-compose down
+
+# Remove local Loki data
+rm -rf /tmp/loki
+
+# Start fresh
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+### Verify Setup
+1. Check Kafka UI (http://localhost:8080) for:
+   - Broker health
+   - Topic creation
+   - Message flow
+
+2. Check Grafana (http://localhost:3000):
+   - Navigate to Explore
+   - Select Loki data source
+   - Query logs using LogQL
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **Loki fails to start**: Check if port 3100 is available
+- **No logs in Grafana**:
+  - Verify Kafka topics are created
+  - Check log generator is running
+  - Verify Loki is receiving data through Kafka UI
+- **Kafka connection issues**:
+  - Ensure broker is running (`docker-compose ps`)
+  - Check broker logs (`docker-compose logs broker`)
