Requirements

Intro

To successfully run Spec-Up-T, ensure your system meets the following requirements:

Tools

  • A terminal / Command Line. This is a standard tool on Windows, macOS and Linux.
  • An editor, also called IDE (Integrated Development Environment). We recommend Visual Studio Code, but an editor in which you can quickly write Markdown is also good
  • A webbrowser. You are probably reading this in a browser, so you already have one
  • Git. To host your specification on Github, you must also have Git installed on your local system. By the way, you can also create a specification (index.html) without hosting it on GitHub. But if you do so, the whole idea of a version-managed glossary using Git goes through the window.

System requirements

  1. Operating System: Windows 10/11, macOS Monterey or later, Linux (Ubuntu 20.04+ recommended).
  2. Node.js: Version 18.x or later.
    • Verify installation: node -v
    • When installing Node.js, you are recommended to check all checkboxes related to dependencies
    • Installing instructions
  3. npm: Version 7.x or later (bundled with Node.js).
    • Verify installation: npm -v
  4. Internet Connection: Required to fetch dependencies from the npm registry.

Additional Notes

  • Ensure the system time is synchronized for HTTPS and certificate validation.
