DWM Installer

Post by a_bertrand »

I made the installation of DWM yet easier.

Download / Install a MySQL or MariaDb
Download / Install Node.JS
Clone the github
Run the start_server.cmd

This last command will install all the needed NPMs, start the server and runs your browser to the right URL starting a simple installer which will create the DB, change the config and setup the admin account.

After the installation you can still start the same startup command, and it will work without activating anymore the installer.

That's awesome thanks for making this easier. I installed it the old way this weekend and all worked and was pretty simple.

Should be indeed not all that difficult even in the old way (which still works and is the more dev standard way), however for those which has very little tech knowledge it could be an help.
