+### Azurite
+
+To use Azurite, pass the `storage_blob_host` config key with the Azurite URL (`http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1` by default)
+and the Azurite credentials (`devstoreaccount1` and `Eby8vdM02xNOcqFlqUwJPLlmEtlCDXJ1OUzFT50uSRZ6IFsuFq2UVErCz4I6tq/K1SZFPTOtr/KBHBeksoGMGw==` by default).
+
+Example:
+
+```
+dev:
+  service: AzureBlob
+  container: container_name
+  storage_account_name: devstoreaccount1
+  storage_access_key: "Eby8vdM02xNOcqFlqUwJPLlmEtlCDXJ1OUzFT50uSRZ6IFsuFq2UVErCz4I6tq/K1SZFPTOtr/KBHBeksoGMGw=="
+  storage_blob_host: http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1
+```
+
+You'll have to create the container before you can start uploading files.
+You can do so using Azure CLI, Azure Storage Explorer, or by running:
+
+`bin/rails runner "ActiveStorage::Blob.service.client.tap{|client| client.create_container unless client.get_container_properties.present?}.tap { |client| puts 'done!' if client.get_container_properties.present?}"`
+
+Make sure that `config.active_storage.service = :dev` is set to your azurite configuration.
+Container names can't have any special characters, or you'll get an error.
+
 ## Standalone
 
 Instantiate a client with your account name, an access key and the container name:
