    Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

    Yes, the current setup process for testing Decidim is complex and may discourage potential contributors or users who want to quickly evaluate the platform, especially those unfamiliar with Ruby. A simpler and quicker way to get the project running would help users get started without spending too much time configuring the environment, which can be a barrier for adoption.

    Describe the solution you'd like

    I would like to see a solution where a simple docker-compose up command could spin up a fully functional instance of Decidim. This would allow users and developers to quickly test and explore the platform with minimal setup. Such an approach could significantly reduce the complexity and time required to evaluate Decidim, leading to faster adoption and more community contributions.

    Describe alternatives you've considered

    Other possible solutions include providing a \"free trial\" demo instance of Decidim hosted by the team, or detailed documentation for creating a local development environment with Docker. However, a docker-compose setup would likely be the most efficient and universally accessible method, as it allows for local testing without dependencies on external hosting or extensive environment setup.

    Additional context

    By lowering the entry barrier with a quick-start Docker container, Decidim could attract more developers from different backgrounds (including those unfamiliar with Ruby) and increase the number of contributors. This could enhance the growth of the platform by making it easier to test and deploy, especially for teams or individuals evaluating Decidim for their use cases.

    Does this issue could impact on users private data?

    No, this feature request is related to the development/testing environment and does not involve user data such as sign-up/sign-in processes or sensitive information like email or IP addresses.
