Open terminal app and run the following commands
### Installing the standalone Command Line Tools
Open terminal app and write the code below
```bash
xcode-select --install
```
### Install Homebrew
```bash
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
```
### Install Git
```bash
brew update
brew install git
```
### Install RVM
You need software-properties-common installed in order to add PPA repositories.
```bash
curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm
```
### Install Ruby
Chatwoot APIs are built on Ruby on Rails, you need install ruby 2.6.5
If you are using `rvm` :
```bash
rvm install ruby-2.6.5
rvm use 2.6.5
```
If you are using `rbenv` to manage ruby versions do :
```bash
rbenv install 2.6.5
```
`rbenv` identifies the ruby version from `.ruby-version` file on the root of the project and loads it automatically.
### Install Node.js
Install Node.js from NodeSoure using the following commands
```bash
brew install node
```
### Install yarn
We use `yarn` as package manager
```bash
brew install yarn
```
### Install postgres
The database used in Chatwoot is PostgreSQL. Use the following commands to install postgres.
```bash
brew install postgresql
```
The installation procedure created a user account called postgres that is associated with the default Postgres role. In order to use Postgres, you can log into that account.
```bash
sudo -u postgres psql
```
### Install redis-server
Chatwoot uses Redis server in agent assignments and reporting. To install `redis-server`
```bash
brew install redis
```
Enable Redis to start on system boot.
```bash
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.redis.plist
```
### Install imagemagick
```bash
brew install imagemagick
```
### Install Docker
This is an optional step. Those who are doing development can install docker from [Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop).
