This project aims to provide an easy way to start developing for Totara by providing a Docker setup.

This setup was created and tested extensively on MacOS and Linux. It also works on Windows via WSL2.

Although this project started as a development environment for Totara Learn it can be adapted for use in any other PHP project.
