Establishing a local Development Environment

Development Options

There are multiple ways that you can establish your local GCD development environment. Refer to the specific instructions below:

  1. Virtualenv - These instructions were updated and validated in September, 2023.
  2. Docker - These instructions should work and were last validated on ???
  3. Vagrant - These instructions have not been maintained and it will require some effort to get this working again. The recommendation is to use one of the other options. However if you do get this to work please let everyone know on the gcd-tech and update the instructions.

  • Existing covers are not available via the data dump and can not be accessed in your local environment.
  • Adding new users
