+Make sure that you have followed
[the steps](/support/doc/dependencies.md)
to install the dependencies.
$ yarn install --pure-lockfile
```
+Note that development is done on the `develop` branch. If you want to hack on
+Peertube, you should switch to that branch. Also note that you have to repeat
+the `yarn install --pure-lockfile` command.
+
Then, create a postgres database and user with the values set in the
`config/default.yaml` file. For instance, if you do not change the values
there, the following commands would create a new database called `peertube_dev`
# sudo -u postgres createdb -O peertube peertube_dev
```
+Then enable extensions PeerTube needs:
+
+```
+$ sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE EXTENSION pg_trgm;" peertube_dev
+$ sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE EXTENSION unaccent;" peertube_dev
+```
+
In dev mode, administrator username is **root** and password is **test**.
