Technical requirements

This chapter will guide you to install Odoo from source in your development computer. Ideally, we need an Ubuntu 18.04 operating system. A Windows 10 system is also an option, since we will explain how to set up Ubuntu in the Windows Subsystem for Linux.

Some reference code for this chapter can be found in the book's GitHub repository, https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Odoo-12-Development-Essentials-Fourth-Edition, in the ch02/ directory.
