 This will output some important [environmental variables](https://www.triplit.dev/docs/local-development#additional-environment-variables) that your app will need to sync with the server. Add them to your `.env` file (Vite example below).

 The default URL for the local development server is `http://localhost:6543`. It will also generate a Service Token and an Anonymous Token that your client app can use to authorize with the server.

 By default, the server will use in-memory storage, meaning that if you shut down the server, all of your data will be lost. This can be useful when you're early in development and frequently iterating on your schema. If you like this quick feedback loop but don't want to repeatedly re-insert test data by hand, you can use Triplit's [`seed` commands](/seeding). You can use seed command on its own:

 If you want a development environment that's more constrained and closer to production, consider using the [SQLite](https://www.sqlite.org/) persistent storage option for the development server:
 
 ```bash copy

 ```
 
 Your database will be saved to `triplit/.data`. You can delete this folder to clear your database.
