+Using with Azurite (previously Azure Storage Emulator)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Azurite is a local emulator for Azure Storage accounts that emulates the API for Azure Blob storage and enables local testing and development without an Azure account, free of charge.
+
+To use the Azure Storage Emulator, you download and install it from the `Azurite page <https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/storage/common/storage-use-azurite>`_.
+
+Copy the default `connection string <https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/storage/common/storage-use-azurite?tabs=visual-studio-code%2Cblob-storage#http-connection-strings>`_ and set it in your settings::
+
+  STORAGES = {
+      "default": {
+          "BACKEND": "storages.backends.azure_storage.AzureStorage",
+          "OPTIONS": {
+              "connection_string": "DefaultEndpointsProtocol=http;AccountName=devstoreaccount1;AccountKey=Eby8vdM02xNOcqFlqUwJPLlmEtlCDXJ1OUzFT50uSRZ6IFsuFq2UVErCz4I6tq/K1SZFPTOtr/KBHBeksoGMGw==;BlobEndpoint=http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1;",
+              "azure_container": "media",
+          },
+      },
+      "staticfiles": {
+          "BACKEND": "storages.backends.azure_storage.AzureStorage",
+          "OPTIONS": {
+              "connection_string": "DefaultEndpointsProtocol=http;AccountName=devstoreaccount1;AccountKey=Eby8vdM02xNOcqFlqUwJPLlmEtlCDXJ1OUzFT50uSRZ6IFsuFq2UVErCz4I6tq/K1SZFPTOtr/KBHBeksoGMGw==;BlobEndpoint=http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1;",
+              "azure_container": "static",
+          },
+      },
+  }
+
+Django Storages will not create containers if they don't exist, so you will need to create any storage containers using the Azurite CLI or the Azure Storage Explorer.
