Semantic Workbench Setup Guide

This document covers the common setup information for the Semantic Workbench.

Codespaces

We recommend using GitHub Codespaces for developing with the Semantic Workbench. This will provide a pre-configured environment with all development tools already installed.

Local Development

Prerequisites

Recommended installers:

  • Linux: apt or your distribution's package manager
  • macOS: brew
  • Windows: winget

Development tools

The backend service for the Semantic Workbench is written in Python.

The frontend for the Semantic Workbench is written in Typescript.

The core dependencies you need to install are:

  • make - for scripting installation steps of the various projects within this repo
  • uv - for managing installed versions of python - for installing python dependencies
  • nvm - for managing installed versions of node
  • pnpm - for installing node dependencies

Linux:

# make is installed by default on linux
sudo apt update && sudo apt install pipx
pipx ensurepath
pipx install uv
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.1/install.sh | bash

nvm install 20 lts
nvm use 20
npm install -g pnpm

macOS:

brew install make
brew install uv
brew install nvm

nvm install 20 lts
nvm use 20
npm install -g pnpm

Windows:

winget install ezwinports.make -e
winget install astral-sh.uv  -e
winget install CoreyButler.NVMforWindows -e

On Windows, exit and restart the VSCode and/or terminal you installed from to re-load your environment variables and ensure the newly installed apps are available on your PATH.

Windows continued:

nvm install 20 lts
nvm use 20
npm install -g pnpm

If you haven't already, enable long file paths on Windows.

  • Run regedit.
  • Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem.
  • Find the LongPathsEnabled key. If it doesn’t exist, right-click on the FileSystem key, select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value, and name it LongPathsEnabled.
  • Double-click on LongPathsEnabled, set its value to 1, and click OK.

Install and run the backend
