Requirements

With Docker

• Docker Desktop on macOS or Windows, or Docker Engine on Linux. The template has its own Dockerfile; Compose is not needed.
• Nothing else: the image brings Node.js 24 and Yarn.

Without Docker

• Node.js 20.9 or newer, the version Next.js 16 needs. Node.js 22 or 24 is recommended; the Docker image uses 24.
• Yarn 4, through Corepack. Run corepack enable once; package.json pins Yarn 4.8.1, so yarn picks the right version by itself.
• Node.js 25 and newer no longer include Corepack. On those, install it first with npm install -g corepack.
• No global packages, no database and no .env file.

An internet connection

• To install and build: the dependencies come from the npm registry, and the build downloads the DM Sans, Noto Sans Arabic and Almarai fonts from Google Fonts. The site then serves them itself.
• To show the site: nothing. Every image and the Clash Display font are files in the download.

A free port

The site answers on port 3030, with Docker and without it. If another program already uses it, you can pick another port when you start.

• A port is already in use
