Installation

Standing up the NKO ERP on a developer machine or a fresh server, from nothing to a first signed-in administrator.

Page	Covers
Prerequisites	Software, the three databases, external accounts, the configuration file, values that are compiled in, and wkhtmltopdf.
Database Setup	Creating the databases, fixing the EF tool version, applying the migrations for both contexts, and verifying the result.
First Run	Starting the app, getting the first account in, the verification checklist, and the setup data every approval chain needs.

A fresh database cannot be signed into

Migrations create schema only — there is no seed data and no way to create the first user from the application (R5-1). Plan on restoring a backup, or on the hand-built route in First Run.
