Migrate from Spec-Up

info

Go straigt to the migration instructions.

Pre condition: You have a Spec-Up installation up and running

When do you need this?

You will need the instructions below if you have a Spec-Up installation and want to convert it to Spec-Up-T.

Why would you want this?

Spec-Up-T has more features than Spec-Up.

What you'll need

  • A terminal / Command Line
  • An editor, also called IDE (Integrated Development Environment). We recommend Visual Studio Code, but an editor in which you can quickly write Markdown is also good
  • Node.js:
    • When installing Node.js, you are recommended to check all checkboxes related to dependencies
    • Use Node.js version 18 or higher
    • If you are running a Spec-Up installation you already have Node.js installed
  • A webbrowser. You are probably reading this in a browser, so you already have one
  • Git. To host your specification on Github, you must also have Git installed on your local system. By the way, you can also create a specification (index.html) without hosting it on GitHub. But if you do so, the whole idea of a version-managed glossary using Git goes through the window.
Non-technical Info

Non-technical explanation:

  • Command Line: A text interface to type commands for your computer.
  • IDE: A software where you can easily write, test, and debug code.
  • Node.js: This makes Spec-Up and Spec-Up-T run
  • Git: A system to track and manage changes in your code.
