Requirements

Web Server

Nectar has Single Page Application (SPA) architecture. It means that all the HTML pages are dynamically loaded inside a parent HTML file (index.html) via AJAX, thus preventing page reload.

As AJAX is required for loading the HTML content, you must have a web server (localhost) installed on your machine.

You can install any one of the web servers of your choice.

If your development environment is Apache + MySQL + PHP, you can use XAMPP for Windows, Linux & macOS.

Code Editor

You can use any of these free code editors.

• Visual Studio Code (Windows, Linux, Mac) (Recommended)

• Brackets (Windows, Linux, Mac)

You should install the latest version of your targeted web browsers for testing of different features.

For Desktop

• Google Chrome (Recommended)

• Apple Safari

• Mozilla Firefox

You can check the features supported by your targeted browsers here at https://caniuse.com and provide fallback for unsupported features accordingly.
