FAQPage Schema
How do I set up a MAPL development environment from scratch?▼

You can set up a MAPL development environment by configuring module discovery, setting environment variables, and verifying build tools. Personalize your setup by editing the ~/.opencode/mapl-config.yaml file to match your system's module names and MAPL checkout location.

What is the MAPL config YAML file used for?▼

The MAPL config YAML file is used for personalized environment configuration. By editing ~/.opencode/mapl-config.yaml, you define your system's specific module names, compiler paths, and MAPL checkout locations to ensure correct environment setup.

Does MAPL development require specific Git branching strategies?▼

MAPL development does require specific Git branching strategies. The setup process explains MAPL's Git branch conventions to help new developers align their contributions with the project's version control standards and workflow.

How do I verify compiler and build tool accessibility for MAPL?▼

To verify compiler and build tool accessibility for MAPL, the setup process includes a verification step. This ensures your configured compiler paths and build directories are correctly recognized by your system before you start building.

Why is my MAPL environment setup not working?▼

Your MAPL environment setup might not be working due to incorrect module names or compiler paths. The setup process addresses common setup issues and helps verify build tool accessibility to resolve environment configuration problems.
