You can definitely set up a local install of VuFind - Solr is just a Java application, so as long as you have Java installed and sufficient memory (Solr likes at least 1GB to itself, though you can scale it smaller for local testing if you have to) you should be fine.

The Windows documentation on the Wiki should help get you up and running; Mac installation is less well-documented, but I know it has been done successfully as well.  By all means feel free to come back with questions if you run into any obstacles!

Hiya friends!

I'm new to VuFind, but know Wordpress and Drupal...might be a basic question, but can I setup a local install of VuFind?  I know how to setup MAMP and WAMP (being a MAC and PC user), MySQL, and phpMyAdmin...with Solr, is this a bit more tricky?

Thanks all-I'm excited to begin my VuFind journey...

Peace,

Michael

I don't make syntax errors. It's just that whoever wrote the programming language failed to anticipate my creative coding.
