• Git :You'll want to have Git to simply clone and install our dspace-angular project (this is the in-development Angular UI for DSpace 7). If you don't have Git, you can choose to install either GitHub Desktop (which includes a GUI) or just plain Git. Any version of Git is fine.
• Node.js (version 6.x or 8.x recommended) : Required to build/run the Angular UI.
  • Note: Node.js will also automatically install npm (Node Package Manager). You shouldn't need to install that separately
• Yarn (version 01.203.x or above) : This is an easier to use, speedier package manager that works similar to npm (Node's package manager). It's currently required to build Angular UI.
• dspace-angular: You can now install dspace-angular itself using the command line.
  1. git clone https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular.git   (Pulls down the code into a dspace-angular folder on your local computer)
  2. cd dspace-angular (Move into the newly created dspace-angular folder)
  3. yarn install           (Install all local dependencies via yarn)
  4. yarn run watch:dev             (Build and startup the DSpace Angular UI)
  5. Assuming all went well, you should be able to go to http://localhost:3000 in your web browser and see the Angular UI homepage.
• Now, to easily follow along with the workshop code changes step-by-step, you may wish to create a branch for the workshop exercises
