Development environment¶

This section describes some tips on how to configure your development environment so you can use MACH composer to the fullest.

Installing the CLI¶

MACH composer is written in Go. For macOS and Linux users the easiest way to install MACH composer is via brew:

Using the JSON schema for IntelliSense autocompletion¶

On Visual Studio Code¶

Register the MACH composer schema per project by adding a .vscode/settings.json with the following configuration:

  "yaml.schemas": {
    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mach-composer/mach-composer-cli/main/internal/config/schemas/schema-1.yaml": "*.yml"
  }
}
