Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch/issues/969

Describe the bug
I cannot find any documentation to install postwoman as I would like a local install and not have to publish my debugging api publically. It seems like https://github.com/liyasthomas/postwoman/wiki/PWA is all PR for what is suppost to be docs, could anyone lead me to some actual docs?

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Find easy-to-read installation docs

Expected behavior
Some simple documentation that underlines how to install postwoman locally

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Ubuntu 20.04 + Windows
  • Browser: Firefox
  • Version: Latest, ~75

Ah, I see. Assumed that "developing" was for developing (e.g. contributer setup)

Any way you could bundle this ? It's pretty annoying to have to install something by hand

Do you mean bundle "as a installer"?

Yeah, something like that. I'm using the docker image, but maybe a snap, deb package or something would be interesting
