Single Machine Development Environment

Ciao Single Machine Development and Test Environment

Developing cluster software is complicated if you must actually run a whole cluster on a set of physical machines. This begs for a development environment that is self contained and can be run without any setup.

Ciao supports a simple developer setup that can be run on your host development system. This allows you to have Ciao setup on your development system from code, and deploying a virtual cluster within a few minutes.

The Ciao Developer Quickstart describes the setup in detail.
