+To run the example locally, first make sure `bazelisk` is on your PATH. Then
+
+Test that things work at all:
+
+```
+$ bazelisk run //test:hello
+...
+Hello World!
+```
+
+Then test that you can run docker images:
+```
+$ bazelisk run //test:hello_image
+...
+Hello World!
+```
+
+Now we can check if C++ exceptions work locally:
+```
+$ bazelisk run //test:exception
+...
+will throw and expect to catch an error...
+caught: error
+done
+```
+
+And whether or not they work in a docker container:
+```
+$ bazelisk run //test:exception_image
+```
+
+If they *work*, then you'll see the same output as above. If not, you'll see:
+
+```
+will throw and expect to catch an error...
+libc++abi: terminating with uncaught exception of type char const*
+```
