Overview

How do I install TaxonWorks both in development and production environments? What tools and environments faciliate the development of TaxonWorks?

TaxonWorks installation is typically for one of the following purposes:

1. Development - TaxonWorks is installed for coding purposes.
2. Production - TaxonWorks is installed for serving/use purposes.
3. Personal use (offline) - TaxonWorks is installed locally (e.g. on your own machine) for use, but not coding TaxonWorks purposes, for example:

• To ensure the integrity of your project backup
• To review, access, or analyze your projects data. For example:
  • Via SQL in a PostgreSQL client
  • Via the console and TaxonWorks data-model code
  • Via API calls directly to your local instance, useful particularly if you are developing data analysis locally in R, Python, or a Notebook
• To explore configuration options, for example UI customizations.

Offline use is through a Development environment.
