我想在本地托管 Discourse 以测试论坛功能。目前我没有信用卡进行验证，因此无法使用 Discourse 的免费试用。请问是否可行？如果可行，该如何实现？
It is possible. We have guides under the dev-install tag.
You can also create an account at http://try.discourse.org to test things out a bit.

If you have a computer with at least 3GB’s of available RAM (google how to find RAM if you need it) just use an app like Virtualbox, install Ubuntu Server 18.04 and follow the Official Installation Guide to get your own copy of Discourse up.
Note: This install is in production mode and should be a bit faster than a dev install.

Yeah, I would do that however I mainly just want to test out the administrative perks.
For that you don’t really need to install it. Just check out a the #howto:admins posts for an idea of what admins can do.
