Prerequisites

Tools Needed

Make sure you have the following tools installed on your computer:

  • Homebrew
  • Git
  • Go
    • You can verify that you've installed Go by typing the following command: go version

Git Configuration

Once you have Git installed, set the global configurations to use your work email when making commits to our repositories:

git config --global user.email "rhendricks@hooli.com"
git config --global user.name "Richard Hendricks"

Next, set up SSH by following the official GitHub instructions so you can connect to GitHub without supplying credentials at each visit.

AWS Services

This project uses AWS services which means you'll need an account to work with parts of it. AWS credentials are managed via aws-vault. Once you have received AWS credentials (which are provided by the infrastructure team), follow these instructions to finish setting up AWS.
