System Requirements

On the Development environment: since we have to build MetaFox Frontend, your server will need to have at least 4G RAM as the Recommendation for React (opens in a new tab)

This article will guide you how to set up Local Development with docker. Thus, the server will need to have docker and docker-compose installed first.

You can download Developer source from Client Area, under MetaFox Dev license. Then, extract the package on your server.

For example, all source files will be uploaded to your server under home/metafox folder

Local Installation Steps

Open Terminal and log in SSH to your server. It is necessary to note that you will need to log in with SSH user having permissions to run docker

Then, run the following command

cd /home/metafox
bash install.sh
