Getting Started​

Get started by installing Rauversion.

What you'll need​

Additional libraries are needed for better sound and image processing:

The chosen database is Postgres. We use Makefiles too.

Finally yarn is needed to install some javascript deps. Download Node.js version 16.14 or above:

  • When installing Node.js, you are recommended to check all checkboxes related to dependencies.

We highly recommend using Docker and the VSCode Dev Container or NeoVim Dev Container plugins. If you prefer to install without Docker then asdfvm for installing dependencies and managing versions is a good choice too.

apt update
apt install elixir
apt install postgresql postgresql-contrib
apt install -y nodejs npm
npm install --global yarn
apt install -y inotify-tools

mix local.hex --force
apt install -y ffmpeg
