# Development
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Overview
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Before starting local development, read the [CONTRIBUTING] guide to understand
 | 
						|
what changes are desirable and what general processes to use.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Environments
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Vagrant
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
A **Vagrant** configuration is included for development purposes. To use it,
 | 
						|
complete the following steps:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Install Vagrant and Virtualbox
 | 
						|
- Install the `vagrant-hostsupdater` plugin:
 | 
						|
  `vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostsupdater`
 | 
						|
- Run `vagrant up`
 | 
						|
- Run `vagrant ssh -c "cd /vagrant && bin/dev"`
 | 
						|
- Open `http://mastodon.local` in your browser
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### macOS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To set up **macOS** for native development, complete the following steps:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Install [Homebrew] and run:
 | 
						|
  `brew install postgresql@14 redis imagemagick libidn nvm`
 | 
						|
  to install the required project dependencies
 | 
						|
- Use a Ruby version manager to activate the ruby in `.ruby-version` and run
 | 
						|
  `nvm use` to activate the node version from `.nvmrc`
 | 
						|
- Run the `bin/setup` script, which will install the required ruby gems and node
 | 
						|
  packages and prepare the database for local development
 | 
						|
- Finally, run the `bin/dev` script which will launch services via `overmind`
 | 
						|
  (if installed) or `foreman`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Docker
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For production hosting and deployment with **Docker**, use the `Dockerfile` and
 | 
						|
`docker-compose.yml` in the project root directory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For local development, install and launch [Docker], and run:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```shell
 | 
						|
docker compose -f .devcontainer/compose.yaml up -d
 | 
						|
docker compose -f .devcontainer/compose.yaml exec app bin/setup
 | 
						|
docker compose -f .devcontainer/compose.yaml exec app bin/dev
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Dev Containers
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Within IDEs that support the [Development Containers] specification, start the
 | 
						|
"Mastodon on local machine" container from the editor. The necessary `docker
 | 
						|
compose` commands to build and setup the container should run automatically. For
 | 
						|
**Visual Studio Code** this requires installing the [Dev Container extension].
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### GitHub Codespaces
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[GitHub Codespaces] provides a web-based version of VS Code and a cloud hosted
 | 
						|
development environment configured with the software needed for this project.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[][codespace]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Click the button to create a new codespace, and confirm the options
 | 
						|
- Wait for the environment to build (takes a few minutes)
 | 
						|
- When the editor is ready, run `bin/dev` in the terminal
 | 
						|
- Wait for an _Open in Browser_ prompt. This will open Mastodon
 | 
						|
- On the _Ports_ tab "stream" setting change _Port visibility_ → _Public_
