Start Using Legend Today​

There are multiple ways to get started with Legend: getting access to the Studio hosted instance, using Legend Omnibus to get the Legend environment up and running locally, or installing Legend.

Studio hosted instance​

This is the easiest way to get started with Legend as it does not involve any installation steps.

FINOS hosts a free instance of Legend to be used for shared modeling efforts.

Instructions to sign up and use this instance are available on the FINOS website.

Note: This is a shared instance which might not be appropriate for proprietary data models.

Using Legend Omnibus​

This is a quick way to get the Legend environment up and running locally. Make sure you have Docker installed. Run the following command in the terminal:

curl https://legend.finos.org/omnibus/start.sh | bash

# Or run the full Omnibus (with embedded Gitlab) which might take a little longer to start up
curl https://legend.finos.org/omnibus/start.full.sh | bash

For Windows user, please use Git Bash or WSL to run the above command.

See the Omnibus Guide for more details.

Setup your own Legend environment​

This is the recommended way to setup Legend for local development. See the Installation Guide for details.
