The requirements of Novius OS are similar to those of FuelPHP:
PHP 5.3 or greater
MySQL
Apache with mod_rewrite enabled
Windows (> Vista), Linux or Mac OS
Installation instructions can be found at the following URL:
http://docs.novius-os.org/en/elche/install/install.html
You are recommended to follow the instructions in the Installation via Zip file section (simplest and general solution). If you are developing on Linux or Mac OS, you might want to follow the instructions in the Installation section as it will download the latest fixes of this version.
You can also configure a virtual host as we did in the previous chapters for FuelPHP (refer to the Advanced installation section). However, we will assume that you only downloaded and unzipped Novius OS in the novius-os folder of your web server's root directory (DOCUMENT_ROOT/novius-os).
