In the previous chapter, we prepared our local forge with all the required tools and services. Now, it’s time to put this preparation to work.

In this chapter, we will apply that knowledge to successfully install Adobe Commerce or its open source alternative, Magento Open Source, as a prerequisite for our frontend development course in subsequent chapters.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Getting to know the platform

Upon completing this chapter, you will possess the vital expertise to set up and operate the platform. So, let’s dive in and examine the steps in depth.
