Get Started in Two Minutes

1. Download and unzip the SonarQube distribution (let's say in "C:\sonarqube" or "/etc/sonarqube")

2. Start the SonarQube server:

# On Windows, execute: C:\sonarqube\bin\windows-x86-xx\StartSonar.bat  # On other operating system, execute: /etc/sonarqube/bin/[OS]/sonar.sh console

3. Download and unzip the SonarQube Runner (let's say in "C:\sonar-runner" or "/etc/sonar-runner")

4. Download and unzip some project samples (let's say in "C:\sonar-examples" or "/etc/sonar-examples")

5. Analyze a project:

# On Windows: cd C:\sonar-examples\projects\languages\java\sonar-runner\java-sonar-runner-simple C:\sonar-runner\bin\sonar-runner.bat # On other operating system: cd /etc/sonar-examples/projects/languages/java/sonar-runner/java-sonar-runner-simple /etc/sonar-runner/bin/sonar-runner

6. Browse the results at http://localhost:9000 (default System administrator credentials are admin/admin)
