Prerequisites

To deploy an Azure TRE instance, the following assets and tools are required:

• Azure subscription
• Azure Active Directory (AAD) tenant in which you can create application registrations
• Git client such as Git or GitHub Desktop
• Docker Desktop

Development container

The Azure TRE solution contains a development container with all the required tooling to develop and deploy the Azure TRE. To deploy an Azure TRE instance using the provided development container you will also need:

• Visual Studio Code
• Remote containers extension for Visual Studio Code

The files for the dev container are located in /.devcontainer/ folder.

Tip

An alternative of running the development container locally is to use GitHub Codespaces.

Warning

The procedures described throughout the documentation have been tested using machines with amd64 architecture CPUs. We have limited access to machines with other CPU architectures and issues may be encountered if those are used.
