Getting Started

Download and Start Temporal Server Locally

Run the Samples

Clone or download samples for Go or Java and run them with the local Temporal server. We have a number of HelloWorld type scenarios available, as well as more advanced ones. Note that the sets of samples are currently different between Go and Java.

Use CLI

Use Temporal's command line tool tctl to interact with the local Temporal server.

alias tctl="docker exec temporal-admin-tools tctl"
tctl namespace list
tctl workflow list

Use Temporal Web UI

Try Temporal Web UI by opening http://localhost:8088 for viewing your sample workflows executing on Temporal.
