Quick start

Run the commands below to start a server. The install script explains what it does and pauses before each action.

curl https://install.growsdk.org | bash
grow init base base
cd base
grow run

• Read quick start documentation.

You can alternatively pip install grow if you like.

Developing Grow itself

Set up a development environment:

git clone git@github.com:grow/grow.git
make develop

Once your development environment is set up, run Grow:

./scripts/grow

Then run tests:

make test

We try to set everything up for you automatically (including a virtualenv) in the make commands, but if you are using Linux and something is not working, you might try:

make develop-linux
make test
