Development Setup

Get a local SilentSuite development environment running. You should be able to go from git clone to a working dev server in under 15 minutes.

Prerequisites

Tool	Version	Install
Node.js	18+	nodejs.org
pnpm	10.6+	corepack enable && corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate
Docker	24+	docs.docker.com (for running services locally)

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/silent-suite/silentsuite.io.git
cd silentsuite.io

2. Install Dependencies

pnpm install

This installs dependencies for all packages in the monorepo.

3. Run the Dev Server

pnpm dev

This starts all apps in development mode using Turborepo.

Monorepo Structure

SilentSuite is a pnpm monorepo managed by Turborepo:

silentsuite.io/
  apps/
    landing/         # Landing page and blog (Next.js)
    web/             # Main web application (Next.js)
    billing-api/     # Billing API
  packages/          # Shared packages
  self-host/         # Self-hosting configuration (Docker Compose)
  deploy/            # Deployment scripts and configuration
  docs/              # Documentation (you are here)

Available Commands

Command	Description
pnpm dev	Start all apps in development mode
pnpm build	Build all apps
pnpm lint	Lint all packages
pnpm test	Run all tests
pnpm type-check	Run TypeScript type checking

Troubleshooting

pnpm install fails

Make sure you're using the correct pnpm version (10.6+). Run corepack enable first.

Port conflicts

The dev server uses port 3000 by default. If that's in use, check which app is occupying it or configure a different port.
