If you want more control you can run the core engine on your localhost for deeper development or contract testing against your own stack.

  1. Clone rails-core

    Terminal window
    git clone https://github.com/railsinfra/rails-core.git
    cd rails-core

  2. Copy .env.example to .env.

    Terminal window
    cp .env.example .env

  3. Run:

    Terminal window
    make dev

    When healthy, the gateway listens on http://localhost:8080.
