Prerequisites

Make sure you have allocated enough resources for Docker. We recommend to allocate at least 4 CPUs, 4GB of RAM and 10GB of disk space.

Windows, Linux and MacOS are supported. For Windows, you need WSL2.

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/faros-ai/faros-community-edition/main/install.sh)" _ --source doc_essentials

This script will:

  1. Download Faros code repository and setup containers
  1. Ask you to configure Git and/or Jira sources
  2. Pull data from those sources to your machine
  3. Direct you to the dashboards

GitHub (Cloud), GitLab (Cloud + Server), Bitbucket (Cloud + Server), Jira (Cloud) are currently supported. All the data remains on your machine. You can inspect the code here.
