What is the current guide on development install?
It seems that the repository linked in the first post was archived:

Is there a replacement?

I’m setting up dev environment on Ubuntu (WSL2) and I installed PostgreSQL using asdf. now db:create complains that socket can’t be found at path /tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432. But for me the socket is at /var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432. Where can I configure correct path? discourse.config doesn’t seem to have any effect.
Furthermore, bin/ember-cli -u throws an error about ImageMagick if it’s not installed/not the correct version. I’m following ChatGPT (please, don’t judge) to install a later version of it since (for some reason) the magick command doesn’t exist on my version. Crossing my fingers hoping it’ll work.
EDIT: 
ChatGPT actually helped! Discourse is now running on 4200.

In my 7 years of discourse development I think I’ve installed it once. Just run the rake task to establish the admin user.

If you’re referring to bin/rails admin:create then yes, I did that, so I edited my post above because I realised that I didn’t need to verify my account (and subsequent user accounts can be activated manually).
However, coming back to the ImageMagick part, is there a way for one not to use ImageMagick (i.e. truly making it ‘optional’)?
