Technical requirements
In this chapter, we will install Odoo from source on an Ubuntu 20.04 operating system. We only need a terminal environment; the Ubuntu graphical user interface is not needed.
If you don't have an Ubuntu 20.04 system available, a Windows 10 workstation will also work. We will be using the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) to ensure you have a working Ubuntu environment on your Windows system.
