Setting up the tools

Most of the software used in this book is platform-dependent; therefore, they have different ways of getting installed on different operating systems. I assume you have enough experience with your current OS to install software, and thus, we will focus on the possible product-related pitfalls in a given OS. We will cover the three most popular operating systems--Linux, Windows, and macOS. If you don't need the database or the web stack, you can skip the installation of the related software and jump through the examples using them.

Make sure you read the OS-related instructions before installing the software if you do not have enough experience with them.

The list of the software stack used in this book can be found in the following thematically grouped table:

Some of these packages are changeable; you can try them out if you have enough experience or have some time for tinkering. For example, you can use nginx instead of Apache, or you can use the WAR ( Web Archive) version of GeoServer with your Java servlet instead of the platform independent binary. You can also use pgAdmin 4 and any subversion of GRASS 6 or GRASS 7 (or even both of them).
