Cannot contribute due to environment issues

I keep getting errors trying to pnpm run dev and start Supabase locally on my machine. How is one supposed to contribute? I've never worked with open-source so I don't know if I'm supposed to find an issue first then propose it and then I get dev access? If anyone could help answer this question or guide me through setting up the Supabase developer environment it would be super helpful

Hi, what error are you getting? No you don't need to get some access to run dev environment locally

Let’s say I want to make a contribution/PR for docs, I was doing pnpm run dev and going to the docs and it was 404s everywhere on my localhost although I followed the DEV.MD pretty well Is following those instructions sufficient to allow me to work on Supabase locally ? I don’t need to configure any .envs?

Btw, if you only need to work on docs, you can run only that package.
pnpm dev:docs
pnpm dev:docs
and you can access docs page on localhost:3001

Did you find this page helpful?
