# Local installation
Before installing Consul and having it up and running make sure you all [prerequisites](prerequisites.md) installed.
1. First, clone the [Consul Github repository](https://github.com/consul/consul/):
```bash
git clone https://github.com/consul/consul.git
```
2. Go to the project folder and install the gems stack using [Bundler](http://bundler.io/):
```bash
cd consul
bundle
```
3. Copy the environment example configuration files inside new readable ones:
```bash
cp config/database.yml.example config/database.yml
cp config/secrets.yml.example config/secrets.yml
```
And setup database credentials with your `consul` user in your new `database.yml` file.
4. Run the following [Rake tasks](https://github.com/ruby/rake) to create and fill your local database with the minimum data to run the application:
```bash
rake db:create
rake db:setup
rake db:dev_seed
rake db:test:prepare
```
5. Check everything is fine by running the test suite (beware it might take more than an hour):
```bash
bin/rspec
```
6. Now you have all set, run the application:
```bash
bin/rails s
```
Congratulations! Your local Consul application will be running now at `http://localhost:3000`.
In case you want to access the local application as admin, a default user verified and with admin permissions was created by the seed files with **username** `admin@consul.dev` and **password** `12345678`.
If you need an specific user to perform actions such as voting without admin permissions, a default verified user is also available with **username** `verified@consul.dev` and **password** `12345678`.
