# Quick start to run Loki locally
If you want to experiment with Loki, you can run Loki locally using the Docker Compose file that ships with Loki. It runs Loki in a [scalable monolithic deployment](https://grafana.com/docs/loki/latest/get-started/deployment-modes/#monolithic-mode) mode and includes a sample application to generate logs.

The test environment includes [Grafana](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/), which you can use to query and observe the sample logs generated by the flog application. You can access the Grafana cluster by navigating to [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000). The Grafana instance provided with this demo has a Loki [datasource](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/datasources/loki/) already configured.

Here are some basic sample queries to get you started using LogQL. Note that these queries assume that you followed the instructions to create a directory called `evaluate-loki`. If you installed in a different directory, you’ll need to modify these queries to match your installation directory. After copying any of these queries into the query editor, click **Run Query** to execute the query.
