Process of developing Appwrite locally
Hello,
For my project, I need some functionality which Appwrite does not offer out of the box. So I'm planning on customizing it to fit my needs. I'd appreciate if someone could describe the process of developing it locally as I'm not used to working with Docker. I'm mainly trying to understand how I can have the hot reload functionality while developing so I don't have to build an image everytime I have to test my changes. I'd appreciate any help.
TL;DR
Developers seeking to customize Appwrite locally can easily do so by following these steps:
1. Familiarize yourself with Docker to work locally.
2. Ensure hot reload functionality by using Docker volumes for instant updates without the need to rebuild the image constantly.
