# DIY Minikube

This prototype can be used for **fast and easy setup of a basic GovStack architecture with all essential stack components.** The purpose is to deploy the prototype for research and testing in your own environment. The prototype is based on [Social Cash Transfer (USCT) Use Case Demo](/sandbox/access-demos/usct-use-case.md). Alongside creating your own environment, read through our "Explore Stack" section and through our developer guidance on GitHub to learn about the technological setup.
