+### Compiling the UI into the Go binary
+
+The UI is compiled and shipped with the Consul go binary. The generated bindata
+file lives in the `command/agent/bindata_assetfs.go` file and is checked into
+source control. This is useful so that not every Consul developer needs to set
+up bundler etc. To re-generate the file, first follow the compilation steps
+above to build the UI assets into the `dist/` folder. With that done, from the
+root of the Consul repo, run:
+
+```
+$ make static-assets
+```
+
+The file will now be refreshed with the current UI data. You can now rebuild the
+Consul binary normally with `make bin` or `make dev`, and see the updated UI
+after re-launching Consul.
