title: Local Development
description: "A guide on how to run Unsends codebase locally"
icon: code
---
## Introduction
Unsend's codebase is fully [open-source on github](https://github.com/unsend-dev/unsend)
Here is the codebase structure
```
apps
├── docs
├── marketing
├── web
packages
├── eslint-config
├── sdk
├── tailwind-config
├── typescript-config
├── ui
```
The ```apps``` directory contains the code for:
- ```web```: Code for our dashboard and email infra
- ```marketing```: The code for the landing page of Unsend
- ```docs```: The documentation that you are currently reading.
The ```packages``` directory contains the code for:
- ```eslint-config``` package contains shared ESLint configuration settings
- ```sdk``` package contains typescript sdk for unsend rest api
- ```tailwind-config``` This package contains a shared Tailwind CSS configuration.
- ```typescript-config``` This package contains a shared typescript configuration
- ```ui``` This package is a collection of reusable UI components like buttons, badges, etc
## Running Unsend locally
To run Unsend, locally you will need to setup the following:
- [AWS](https://aws.amazon.com/) Free tier account will work.
- [Cloudflare](https://www.cloudflare.com/) Free tier account will work.
- [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/) Recommended but not mandatory
## Fork and Clone the repo
<Steps>
<Step title="Fork the repo">
Click on the fork button on [Github](https://github.com/unsend-dev/unsend) to fork the repo
</Step>
<Step title="Clone the repo">
Once the repo is forked you can clone it on your local machine using:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/your-username/unsend.git
```
</Step>
</Steps>
## Install Dependencies
<Steps>
<Step>
```bash
corepack enable
```
</Step>
<Step>
```bash
pnpm install
```
</Step>
</Steps>
## Setup environment variables:
<Steps>
<Step title="Copy the env.example file into .env">
```bash
cp .env.example .env
```
</Step>
<Step title="Nextauth secret">
Use the following command to generate a key and add it under ```NEXTAUTH_SECRET```
```bash
openssl rand -base64 32
```
</Step>
<Step title="Setup Github Oauth">
Next, [create a new GitHub App](https://github.com/settings/applications/new). This will allow you to sign in to Unsend with your GitHub account.4
Add the homepage as:
```
http://localhost:3000/login
```
and callback URL as:
```
http://localhost:3000/api/auth/callback/github
```
Once the app is added you can add the Client ID under ``GITHUB_ID``and CLIENT SECRET under ```GITHUB_SECRET```
</Step>
<Step title="Setup AWS credentials">
Next, we need to add in the [AWS credentials](https://docs.unsend.dev/get-started/create-aws-credentials). Follow the detailed guide to get the AWS credentials with accurate permissions and add them in:
```
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<access-key-id>
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<secret-access-key>
```
Once the app is added you can add the Client ID under ``GITHUB_ID``and CLIENT SECRET under ```GITHUB_SECRET```
</Step>
</Steps>
## Running Unsend locally
We are using a local Postgresql server and a local Redis server. But if you don't have docker you can also manually set these up.
### Option 1: Using Docker Recommended
<Steps>
<Step title="Start the dashboard">
```bash
pnpm d
```
</Step>
<Step title="Dashboard and Landing page will start running">
Dashboard will be started on
```bash
http://localhost:3000
```
Landing page will be started on
```bash
http://localhost:3001
```
</Step>
<Step title="Once you login with Github you will be prompted with SES settings. You will need to run cloudflare tunnel to add the callback URL">
Run the following command to get the URL. Here is the more detailed guide by [cloudflare](https://developers.cloudflare.com/pages/how-to/preview-with-cloudflare-tunnel/)
```bash
cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:3000
```
You can paste the URL provided by cloudflare in the Callback URL section
</Step>
</Steps>
### Option 2: Using your own database or hosted database
<Steps>
<Step title="Set up your PostgreSQL and Redis database in Environment Variables">
```bash
DATABASE_URL=""
REDIS_URL=""
```
</Step>
<Step title="Migrate the database">
```bash
pnpm db:migrate-dev
```
</Step>
<Step title="Start the development server">
```bash
pnpm dev
```
</Step>
<Step title="Once you login with Github you will be prompted with SES settings. You will need to run cloudflare tunnel to add the callback URL">
Run the following command to get the URL. Here is the more detailed guide by [cloudflare](https://developers.cloudflare.com/pages/how-to/preview-with-cloudflare-tunnel/)
```bash
cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:3000
```
You can paste the URL provided by cloudflare in the Callback URL section
</Step>
</Steps>
## Run documentation
To run the documentation run the following command:
```bash
pnpm dev:docs
```
