### Configure

Copy `.env.sample` to `.env.local` and customize.
You can add/remove services using their exact name with PASSWORD_xxx env variables.

### Setup ruby

Have `ruby >= 3.1` installed with `gems` and the `bundler` gem.

Then simply use `bundle install` to install the dependencies (see the `Gemfile`, there should a very low amount of dependencies).
