title: How to access the `Alice` account on a Parity Substrate developer chain?
body: <p>The <a href="https://substrate.dev/substrate-collectables-workshop/#/0/interacting-with-your-node" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Substrate Collectables Workshop</a> suggests at some point that the developer chain comes with a prefunded account for <em>Alice</em>.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Let's go into the <strong>Transfer</strong> app, and make a transaction. The default account named "Alice" is pre-funded with a ton of <em>Units</em>.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>However, connecting Polkadot-JS to my local <code>--dev</code> chain does not come with an account; also the <strong>Transfer</strong> app is not visible.</p>

  <p>What's the mnemonic seed for the Alice account or how to recover that account? Is there any way?</p>
