Quickstart, with Docker

The recommended installation method uses Docker. Docker works on OS X, Linux, and Windows, takes care of all the project dependencies (e.g. database, search engine, web server, etc.), and makes deployment easy.

If you’re not ready to use Docker, see Manual Installation.

Otherwise, if you haven’t already, install Docker.

$ bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ic-labs/django-icekit/master/startproject.sh) {project_name}

$ bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ic-labs/django-icekit/develop/startproject.sh) {project_name} develop

$ cd {project_name}
$ docker-compose build --pull

$ docker-compose run --rm --service-ports django

# manage.py createsuperuser
