# Initialize Development Environment
## Overview
Get a new developer up and running with the Reactive Data Client monorepo.
## Steps
1. **Install prerequisites**
- Install Node.js >= 14 via [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm): `nvm install`
- Enable Corepack for Yarn 4: `corepack enable`
- Verify Yarn: `yarn --version` (should be 4.x)
2. **Install dependencies**
- Run `yarn install` from repo root
- This installs all workspace dependencies
3. **Build the project**
- Run `yarn build` to build all packages
- This runs TypeScript compilation and Babel transforms
4. **Run tests**
- Run `yarn test` to verify everything works
- Tests use Jest with projects: ReactDOM, Node, ReactNative
5. **Project familiarization**
- Review monorepo structure:
- `packages/endpoint` – Base endpoints and declarative schemas
- `packages/rest` – REST modeling (`resource()`, `RestEndpoint`)
- `packages/core` – Framework-agnostic normalized store
- `packages/react` – React hooks (`useSuspense`, `useLive`, `useQuery`)
- `packages/vue` – Vue 3 composables
- `packages/normalizr` – Schema/Entity/normalization
- Read [official docs](https://dataclient.io/docs)
- Explore example apps in `examples/`
6. **Optional: Start website locally**
- Use workspace task "website: start" or `cd website && yarn start`
- Documentation site runs on localhost
