Neos is a modern, open-source content management system that allows users to create and manage their website's content with ease. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Neos on a Windows 10 computer.
Before we begin, ensure that the following prerequisites are already installed on your system:
The first step is to download the Neos package from the official website. You can find the latest version of Neos on the Neos website: https://www.neos.io/download.html.
Download the appropriate version of Neos for your system, extract the downloaded file, and place the extracted folder in your preferred location.
Next, navigate to the extracted folder and open a command prompt window. Run the following command to install all the necessary dependencies for Neos:
composer install
This command will download and install all the required packages and dependencies for Neos.
Now, we need to configure the database for Neos. Create a new database in MySQL and name it neos.
Next, open the Configuration/Production/Settings.yaml file and replace the <username> and <password> placeholders with your MySQL username and password, respectively.
Neos:
Flow:
persistence:
backendOptions:
driver: pdo_mysql
dbname: neos

Save the changes and close the file.
To start the Neos development server, run the following command in the command prompt window:
./flow server:run
This command will start the web server and run the Neos application. Once the server is up and running, you can access Neos by opening a web browser and visiting http://localhost:8080/neos.
In this tutorial, we have explained how to install Neos on a Windows 10 computer. By following the above steps, you will have a fully functional installation of Neos ready to use.
