So the company I work for doesn’t let us just clone random repo’s on the internet. Not to suggest you guys are doing shady stuff, but if they make an exception for you, they’ll have to make an exception for everyone. Or so they keep telling me 😃

But is there a set of instructions for running a local temporal server just using the binaries (zip files :  
Presumably: temporal\_1.10.2\_darwin\_arm64.tar.gz).

Ill try a couple of things but I thought I would throw this (probably silly) question out there.

Probably easiest way would be to use one of the [docker compose files](https://github.com/temporalio/docker-compose), no need to clone the repo.
