Run a Local Convex Network

A local network is the default way to exercise changes in this repository. It needs no credentials, no remote host, and can be thrown away and recreated freely. Prefer it over a remote network for anything that is not specifically about remote behaviour.

Requires a built convex.jar — see the build-convex skill.

Start a Temporary Network

java -jar convex.jar local start

Starts a throwaway test network. State is not preserved between runs, which is what you want for testing.
