+# Using lakeFS with MinIO
+
+[MinIO](https://min.io) is a high performance, distributed object storage system. You can use lakeFS to add git-like capabilities over it.
+For learning purposes, it is recommended to follow our [step-by-step guide](https://lakefs.io/git-like-operations-over-minio-with-lakefs/) on how to deploy lakeFS locally over MinIO.
+
+If you already know how to install lakeFS, and want to configure it to use MinIO as the underlying storage, your lakeFS configuration should contain the following:
+
+```yaml
+blockstore:
+  type: s3
+  s3:
+    force_path_style: true
+    endpoint: http://<minio_endpoint>:9000
+    credentials:
+      access_key_id: <minio_access_key>
+      secret_access_key: <minio_secret_key>
+```
+
+The full example can be found [here](https://docs.lakefs.io/reference/configuration.html#example-minio).
+
+Note that lakeFS can also be configured [using environment variables](https://docs.lakefs.io/reference/configuration.html#using-environment-variables).
