 ### Development
 
+#### Software dependencies
+
+We use [`mise`](https://mise.jdx.dev/) as a dependency manager for these tools.
+Once properly installed, `mise` will provide the correct versions for each tool. `mise` does not
+replace any other installations of these binaries and will only serve these binaries when you are
+working inside of the `optimism` directory.
+
+##### Install `mise`
+
+Install `mise` by following the instructions provided on the
+[Getting Started page](https://mise.jdx.dev/getting-started.html#_1-install-mise-cli).
+
+##### Install dependencies
+
+```sh
+mise install
+```
+
 #### Running locally
