Setup

Prepare your workstation

In order to test and extend the Smart Cities platform, you'll need to install a few tools on your workstation. While you may not need all of the following, end-to-end development of the platform will require each of these at some point.

• Elixir - custom applications written for the project
• Nodejs - the front end user interface, using the Reactjs framework
• Git - source code management; cloning the projects and pushing them back up for review
• Docker and Docker Compose - local development and testing; application packaging and deployment
• Kubectl - Kubernetes cluster management and application debugging
• Helm - Application packaging and deployment configuration management
• Minikube - Local development testing
