Run OpenMetadata UI Locally

Pre-requisites

Using the command below, spin up the server locally from the directory.openmetadata-dist/target/openmetadata-*-SNAPSHOT.

# # Non-secure mode
./bin/openmetadata-server-start.sh conf/openmetadata.yaml
# # Secure mode
./bin/openmetadata-server-start.sh conf/openmetadata-security.yaml

Since typescript is heavily used in the OpenMetadata project, we generate the typescript types and the interface from JSON schema. We use the QuickType tool to generate the typescript types and interface. You can view the complete instructions here
