# Installation Guide
|
|
|
|
There are many different ways you can install the **development environment** so
|
|
you can help contribute code to Forem.
|
|
|
|
## Installing locally
|
|
|
|
You can install Forem to your local machine and we have instructions for
|
|
[Mac](/installation/mac), [Windows](/installation/windows) and
|
|
[Linux](/installation/linux).
|
|
|
|
## Running with containers
|
|
|
|
Installing to your local machine can be troublesome for many reasons such as a
|
|
conflicting database and runtime versions.
|
|
|
|
Another way you can get a development environment up and running is with
|
|
containers. They will set up everything you need in an isolated environment, and
|
|
you need not worry about the details of setting everything up locally. We have
|
|
instructions for getting set up with [containers](/installation/containers)
|
|
quickly.
|
|
|
|
## GitPod _- beginner friendly!_
|
|
|
|
If you are having trouble with local installation and Docker confuses you, then
|
|
you can launch a **development environment** with the press of a button with
|
|
GitPod.
|
|
|
|
GitPod is an IDE in the cloud which is also attached to a web server. It will
|
|
install everything you need. If you are comfortable doing everything from a web
|
|
browser, then we have instructions for installing with
|
|
[GitPod](/installation/gitpod) as well.
