Setting up a development envoirnment

[ParadauxIO]

Could CONTRIBUTING.md be expanded to show potential contributors how to setup their development envoirnment to best suit quick development?

I'm not particularly familiar with Laravel or React myself but would like to pitch in, on behalf of my org -- to some of the open issues.

Thanks.

You can refer to BUILDING.md to assist you with that. Using an existing docker-compose file to spin up the panel in a container is the best method.

You can try using pterodactyl/development. It sets up a dev environment in virtual machines and docker containers. Works on linux and macOS (or at least should work).

The last time I set it up there were some minor issues, not sure if they're fixed now. PRs that fix issues with initial setup are welcome of course. All in all that should be the easiest way to set up a complete dev environment.

Should be good now, I had to setup from scratch the other week.
