This guide provides step-by-step instructions for setting up the Credential Constructor and Datastore services. You will learn how to make the API accessible from your host for seamless interaction, explore the API using the Swagger UI, and enable tracing with Jaeger. This setup is part of the VC Project, a suite of services designed to manage verifiable credentials.
