Skimur is a next-gen media aggregation platform.

Setting up a dev environment has been streamlined so that anybody can quickly begin contributing. You do need to install two items though.

• Vagrant - https://www.vagrantup.com/
• VirtualBox - https://www.virtualbox.org/

Once installed, open a command prompt and cd into the directory where you will develop. Then, run these commands.

> git clone https://github.com/skimur/skimur

This will initialize the source code locally.

> vagrant up

This will create and configure a virtual machine dynamically with all the dependencies installed and configuired that are required to run skimur.

You are all set! Now open the project up (src/Skimur.sln) and run it! Currently, VS2013+ is required. Skimur is a distributed system. So, in order for the web application to fully function, every worker process (*.Worker.Cons) needs to be running.

NOTE: All though we currently require you to develop with Visual Studio on Windows, future versions will support the new .NET Core which runs on Windows/Mac/Linux. At that time, development will take place using either Visual Studio (Windows), or Visual Studio Code (Windows/Mac/Linux). This will also open up support for possible future Docker support!

Skimur uses .NET 4.5. Future versions will run on .NET Core (Windows/Mac/Linux).
