## Run local - Docker way

In Laravel 8, there is a new package available called <https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/sail>.

We use this to run the site locally and test it.

#### Step 1 - Install Docker

All you need is to install <https://www.docker.com/> on your computer.

After that extract the code and open it in the Terminal / Command prompt

```
cd YOUR_FOLDER_NAME
./vendor/bin/sail up
```

The first time you run this can take some time

#### Step 2 - Install via CMD

After sail is running, open a new terminal window and navigate to the project.

execute

```
./vendor/bin/sail artisan migrate --fresh --seed
```

This will set up ( seed ) the database.

Then execute / run

```
cd storage
touch installed
```

This should create an empty file in **storage** folder, to let the system know that the project is installed. Then open the site on [localhost](http://127.0.0.1).

You should see the site now
