cp .env-copy .env
npm i
# and then for the frontend
cd src/web && npm i &&& cd ../..
npm run dev:anon

We document the code base in Sphinx, see ./docs. We host the documentation at attestate.com/kiwistand/main.

Since https://news.kiwistand.com is now running live as a p2p node, you're invited to run your own nodes and frontends. However, please consider to join a chat like the attestate dev chat to stay in touch for eventual upgrade announcements as the protocol is far from being complete.
