Prerequisites

ElectricSQL requires NodeJS and either Docker or Elixir.

NodeJS

You need version 16.11 or higher. You can download NodeJS here. Verify using e.g.:

$ node --version
v18.11.0

Docker

You can install Docker here.

Elixir

Elixir is optional and only required if you want to compile and run the sync service directly, rather than using an official docker build.

You can install Elixir here. Check the pre-reqs in the source code for version compatibility.
