PyCon Colombia - Website 2025

This guide explains how to create a development environment using Mamba and set up a Vite application.

Prerequisites

• Install Mamba
• Install Node.js (if not using Mamba to install it)

---

1️⃣ Create a New Mamba Environment

Run the following command to create and activate a Mamba environment with Node.js:

mamba create -n pycon-2025-env nodejs
mamba activate pycon-2025-env

Ensure that Node.js and npm are correctly installed:

node -v
npm -v

---

2️⃣ (Alternative) Use a Locally Installed Node.js Version

If you prefer to use a version of Node.js installed on your local system instead of Mamba, skip installing Node.js in Mamba and use:

nvm install 18  # Install Node.js 18 using NVM (if not already installed)
nvm use 18      # Use Node.js 18

Ensure that Node.js and npm are correctly installed:

node -v
npm -v

---

3️⃣ Install Dependencies

Navigate to your Vite project directory and run:

cd pycon-2025  # Replace with your actual project folder name
npm install

---

4️⃣ Start the Development Server

Launch the Vite development server with:

npm run dev

By default, the app should be accessible at http://localhost:5173/.

---

5️⃣ Recreating the Environment

To replicate this environment on another system, follow these steps:

1. Create the same environment:

   mamba env create -f environment.yml
   mamba activate pycon-2025-env

2. If using a local Node.js version, install it again:

   nvm install 18  # Ensure the correct version is installed
   nvm use 18

3. Navigate to the project and install npm dependencies:

   cd pycon-2025  # Replace with your actual project folder name
   npm install

4. Run the Vite app:

   npm run dev
