Hi Appwrite team 👋
I'm trying to contribute to Appwrite and followed the official setup instructions from the CONTRIBUTING.md guide to run the platform locally.
After spinning up the environment using Docker and accessing the Console UI, I tried creating a Cloud Function to test changes — but the function deployment gets stuck in waiting and never moves to building or ready.
What I checked and tried:
I’ve read through all existing Discord Discussions and Issues that mention "waiting"
I also followed the suggestions from this Discord thread:

I tried:
Pressing "Redeploy" on the stuck function
Creating multiple new functions
Uploading code using the "Manual Upload" option
Additionally, when I create attributes for a collection, they also remain in processing status and never become active
Questions:
Do I need to do anything additional to enable function builds locally?
Should I manually pull runtimes from GitHub Container Registry (ghcr.io/open-runtimes/...)?
Are some background workers (like Functions or Database) not running?
Is there a way to check or trigger the queue/worker jobs manually?
Could I be missing some services, environment variables, or network permissions?
Any help or pointers would be really appreciated 🙏
Thanks in advance!
