# Setup
## Prerequisites
You need two tools to develop RenderCV:
- **[`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/)**: Package and project manager. RenderCV uses `uv` to manage dependencies. It also handles Python installations, so you don't need to install Python separately.
- **[`just`](https://github.com/casey/just)**: Command runner. Development commands are defined in the [`justfile`](https://github.com/rendercv/rendercv/blob/main/justfile), and you need `just` to run them.
Install them by following their official installation guides:
- [Install `uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/)
- [Install `just`](https://github.com/casey/just#installation)
## Setting Up the Development Environment
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/rendercv/rendercv.git
```
and change to the repository directory:
```bash
cd rendercv
```
2. Set up the development environment (creates a virtual environment in `./.venv` with all dependencies):
```bash
just sync
```
3. Run `just test` to verify all tests pass and everything is set up correctly.
4. Finally, activate the virtual environment in your integrated development environment (IDE). In Visual Studio Code:
- Press `Ctrl+Shift+P`.
- Type `Python: Select Interpreter`.
- Select the one in `./.venv`.
That's it! You're now ready to start developing RenderCV.
## Available Commands
### Development
- `just sync`: Sync all dependencies (including extras and dev groups)
- `just format`: Format code with black and ruff
- `just check`: Run all checks (ruff, pyright, pre-commit)
### Testing
- `just test`: Run tests with pytest
- `just test-coverage`: Run tests with coverage report
- `just update-testdata`: Update test data files (see [Testing](testing.md) for more details)
### Documentation
- `just build-docs`: Build documentation
- `just serve-docs`: Serve documentation locally with live reload
### Scripts
- `just update-schema`: Update JSON schema
- `just update-entry-figures`: Update entry figures for documentation
- `just update-examples`: Update example files
- `just create-executable`: Create standalone executable
### Utilities
- `just count-lines`: Count lines of Python code in the `src/` directory
