Régis Behmo 4d6de0138a v10.0.0 Upgrade to Juniper (2020-06-15)
Here, we upgrade the Open edX platform from Ironwood to Juniper. This
upgrade does not come with many feature changes, but there are many
technical improvements under the hood:

- Upgrade from Python 2.7 to 3.5
- Upgrade from Mongodb v3.2 to v3.6
- Upgrade Ruby to 2.5.7

We took the opportunity to completely rething the way locally running
platforms should be accessed for testing purposes. It is no longer
possible to access a running platform from http://localhost and
http://studio.localhost. Instead, users should access
http://local.overhang.io and https://studio.local.overhang.io. This
drastically simplifies internal communication between Docker containers.

To upgrade, users should simply run:

    tutor local quickstart

For Kubernetes platform, the upgrade process is outlined when running:

    tutor k8s upgrade --from=ironwood

.. _quickstart:
Quickstart (1-click install)
----------------------------
1. `Download <https://github.com/overhangio/tutor/releases>`_ the latest stable release of Tutor and place the ``tutor`` executable in your path. From the command line:
.. include:: cli_download.rst
2. Run ``tutor local quickstart``
3. You're done!
**That's it?**
Yes :) This is what happens when you run ``tutor local quickstart``:
1. You answer a few questions about the :ref:`configuration` of your Open edX platform.
2. Configuration files are generated from templates.
3. Docker images are downloaded.
4. Docker containers are provisioned.
5. A full, production-ready Open edX platform (`Juniper <https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/edx-installing-configuring-and-running/en/open-release-juniper.master/platform_releases/juniper.html>`__ release) is run with docker-compose.
The whole procedure should require less than 10 minutes, on a server with a good bandwidth. Note that your host environment will not be affected in any way, since everything runs inside docker containers. Root access is not even necessary.
There's a lot more to Tutor than that! To learn more about what you can do with Tutor and Open edX, check out the :ref:`whatnext` section. If the quickstart installation method above somehow didn't work for you, check out the :ref:`troubleshooting` guide.
