-### Prerequisites
+### Development Environment Setup
+
+Before getting started, make sure you have a proper Zephyr development environment. Follow the official [Zephyr Getting Started Guide](https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/getting_started/index.html).
+
+#### Prerequisites
 
 - **Zephyr SDK** - Required for cross-compilation and board support
 - **West** - Zephyr's meta-tool for project management and building

+1. **Install the Zephyr SDK**: Follow the [official Zephyr getting started guide](https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/getting_started/index.html) for your operating system.
+
+2. **Set up Python virtual environment and install West**:
    ```bash
    python3 -m venv ~/.venv
    source ~/.venv/bin/activate
    pip install west
    ```
 
+#### Workspace Initialization
+
+The first step is to initialize the workspace folder where the `OpenAstroFirmware` and all Zephyr modules will be cloned. Run the following command:
+
+```bash
+# Initialize workspace for OpenAstroFirmware
+west init -m https://github.com/OpenAstroTech/OpenAstroFirmware --mr main OpenAstroTech-workspace
+# Update Zephyr modules
+cd OpenAstroTech-workspace
+west update
+```
+
+After initialization, your workspace structure will look like:
+```
+OpenAstroTech-workspace/
+├── OpenAstroFirmware/     # This repository
+├── zephyr/                # Zephyr RTOS
+└── modules/               # Zephyr modules (HAL, libraries, etc.)
+```
+
+**Important**: Remember to activate your Python virtual environment each time you start working on the project:
+```bash
+source ~/.venv/bin/activate
+```
+
 ### Configuration
