# For Developers
Development Environment Setup

November 3, 2023 at 9:42 AM Edit on GitHub

These are examples of how to setup a local development environment to add bridges, improve the docs, etc.

## #Docker

The following can serve as an example for using docker:

    # create a new directory
    mkdir rss-bridge-contribution
    cd rss-bridge-contribution

    # clone the project into a subfolder
    git clone https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge

Then add a `docker-compose.yml` file:

    version: '3'

    services:
      rss-bridge:
        build:
          context: ./rss-bridge
        ports:
          - 3000:80
        volumes:
          - ./config:/config
          - ./rss-bridge/bridges:/app/bridges

You can then access RSS-Bridge at `localhost:3000` and add your bridge to the `rss-bridge/bridges` folder.

If you need to edit any other files, like from the `lib` folder add this to the `volumes` section: `./rss-bridge/lib:/app/lib`.

### #Docs with Docker

If you want to edit the docs add this to your docker-compose.yml:

    services:
      [...]

      daux:
        image: daux/daux.io
        ports:
          - 8085:8085
        working_dir: /build
        volumes:
          - ./rss-bridge/docs:/build/docs
        network_mode: host

and run for example the `daux serve` command with `docker-compose run --rm daux daux serve`. After that you can access the docs at `localhost:8085` and edit the files in `rss-bridge/docs`.
