Forgive me if I am being stupid. (I probably am here)

  1. Install ruby
  2. Install redis and stuff if it's not installed
  3. Run the server
  4. Connect to the server via browser
    I'm too lazy for more detailed stuff

I wrote Docker files. If you use Docker, #7 might help.

Ah, I probably should have included some instructions! Maybe I'll get that later, but the gist of it is what Gabgab said. if you know docker, akky's PR is great. Otherwise, something like:

brew install redis
redis-server

# in a new terminal:
bundle install
bundle exec puma

(This assumes you already have a reasonable version of ruby installed)

@kkuchta I've never used ruby. So I doubt I have it installed, (or at a decent version). How would I run this otherwise?

12944qwerty commented

I don't know Docker or ruby. So what do I do? (how do I install ruby properly?)

That really depends on your OS and individual circumstances - I'm not sure I can help you there. I'd check out https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/ as a starting point?

  1. install rvm, which is like nvm. \curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
  2. install ruby. rvm install 2.6
  3. install bundle, sudo gem install bundler
  4. execute #4 (comment)

so once you have the server up... in your browser type localhost:9292
