Run the full Autional platform locally in 3 clear steps.
This documentation hub helps new engineers go from local boot to system understanding quickly. Start the platform, validate the gateway, then move into the docs that match your task: architecture, APIs, security, or deployment.
Clone and boot the platform
Start the local stack so every service, gateway route, and operational dependency is available for exploration.
# Boot the full local stack (the compose files ship with the private-deployment deliverable; middleware + all 27 services); the first run takes about 2-3 minutes docker compose -f docker-compose.infra.yml -f docker-compose.monolith.yml up -d
Verify the gateway
Check health first, then move into the interactive docs once the gateway is responding.
curl http://localhost:11080/health open http://localhost:11080/docs/
Sign in to the admin console
Sign in with the sample credentials (local demos only — do not use in production) to inspect tenants, auth flows, policies, and configuration from the UI.
http://localhost:11080 admin@admin.com / admin123
Next Stops
Understand the 4-tier architecture, shared layers, and 27 microservices.
Review MFA, audit, encryption, and production hardening decisions.
Inspect gateway docs, service paths, and OpenAPI entry points.
Move from local development to repeatable production deployment.
