Setting Up a Development Environment
====================================

This page describes how to setup a working Python development
environment that can be used in developing Tacker on Ubuntu, Fedora or
Mac OS X. These instructions assume you're already familiar with
Git and Gerrit, which is a code repository mirror and code review toolset
, however if you aren't please see `this Git tutorial`_ for an introduction
to using Git and `this guide`_ for a tutorial on using Gerrit and Git for
code contribution to Openstack projects.

.. _this guide: http://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html#development-workflow

If you want to be able to run Tacker in a full OpenStack environment,
you can use the excellent `DevStack`_ project to do so. There is a wiki page
that describes `setting up Tacker using DevStack`_.
