System Requirements

💡 Before you begin, make sure you have the following installed:

Getting Started With Local Development

Amplication is using a monorepo (powered by Nx Workspaces) with multiple apps and libraries.

Follow these simple instructions to set up a local development environment.

Clone the repository and install dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/amplication/amplication.git
cd amplication
npm install

Run the setup script, which takes care of installing dependencies, building packages and ensuring your workspace is dev-ready.

npm run setup:dev

Spin up all required infrastructure (Postgres, Kafka, etc.) using Docker Compose:

# To be able to view logs
npm run docker:dev

# Or, if you prefer to run it at the background
npm run docker:dev -- -d

Apply database migrations:

npm run db:migrate:deploy

To start developing, run one or more of the serve:[app] scripts from package.json The available scripts are:

npm run serve:server : runs Amplication server

npm run serve:client: runs Amplication client

npm run serve:dsg: runs the Build Manager and the local version of Data Service Generator

npm run serve:git: runs the Git Pull Request service needed to push code to Git providers

npm run serve:storage: runs the Storage service needed to view the generated code in the client (code view)

npm run serve:plugins: runs the plugin catalog API

ℹ️ Please note that in order to be able to run the app's client properly, you need to serve both the server and client plus any additional component for specific functionalities:

That's it, you are good to go! Happy hacking! 👾

You can always find more information in each app/library's respective README.md file.
