Wikibase, Docker, and You: Getting started with a local Wikibase instance
*Instructor*: Jim Hahn, Head of Metadata Research, University of
Pennsylvania
Abstract: This session will provide a general introduction to getting
Wikibase -- the software that powers Wikidata -- up and running on your
local desktop/laptop running Docker. Session leader will demo using Docker
Desktop for Mac, though installation is possible on Docker Desktop for
Windows and Linux Docker Engine-Community (
https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/ ).
The session includes a simple introduction to using Docker on your desktop,
followed by a necessary (though not overly technical) delineation of the
technology stack that makes up Wikibase.
After we have walked through the installation steps, the last half of the
hour will be reserved for independent work, question and answer time, and
general troubleshooting for your newly installed Wikibase instance!

seeks to create a space for GLAM professionals experimenting with
Wikibase/WBStack implementation, the software that Wikidata is based on, to
learn collaboratively and share tips, tools, and resources. For more
details, see the project page
