If you do not have Composer, you may install it by following the instructions at getcomposer.org.

Create a project:

cd myproject

To run the app:

./yii serve

Now you should be able to access the application through the URL printed to console. Usually it is http://localhost:8080.

Fork the repository, clone it, then:

cd myproject
make composer update

To run the app:

make up

To stop the app:

make down

The application is available at https://localhost.
