Environment setup is something that if you don't do right the first time around
it will come back to haunt you because you will spend a lot of time fighting
with your tools instead of your tools helping you. Also, installing tools with
sudo
can result in you having to use that tool with sudo
for every command.
When downloading things like node modules off the internet this could be a very
bad idea. So don't use sudo
unless it is specifically listed.
If you are wondering how to use this guide. You need to know that all of our documentation is stored in the instructions directory. From there you should pick your os and follow the setup instructions. Once the setup instructions are complete you should be able to then find additional tools useful for certain kinds of development. See the kinds-of-development section.
Create these directories before / as you get started.
