==CZ Technical Information==
It is sometimes convenient to create a personal copy of the CZ wiki. For example, some citizens may wish to work on their articles when they do not have internet access. Additionally, those interested in working on the code that implements the CZ wiki need to create a local development environment, which requires them to create a personal CZ clone.
This page comprises information about the technical underpinnings of Citizendium. This information provides those interested in contributing to CZ technical development with guidance on how to do so. It also provides non-technical citizens with instructions how to file bugs or enhancement requests.
