Local Development Mode - Setup Guide
It's possible to setup a blank instance of this job board locally. This is a local development mode and it's different from the way the app runs in production. In this scenario the app runs on a minimal database containing mock data. The app has reduced functionality when ran in local development mode. It's not possible to send emails or connect to third party services, like Twitter, Telegram and FX APIs. It's still possible to run and test the app but with limited functionality.
Requirements
These are basic requirements with the respective versions have been tested to work locally on MacOS. The same should apply both on Linux and WSL/Windows.
- Bash 3.2.x or higher
- Docker 20.10.x or higher
- Go 1.15.x or higher
