## Developer Install

|
||||
!!! warning
|
||||
|
||||
InvokeAI uses a SQLite database. By running on `main`, you accept responsibility for your database. This
|
||||
means making regular backups (especially before pulling) and/or fixing it yourself in the event that a
|
||||
PR introduces a schema change.
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't need persistent backend storage, you can use an ephemeral in-memory database by setting
|
||||
`use_memory_db: true` under `Path:` in your `invokeai.yaml` file.
|
||||
|
||||
If this is untenable, you should run the application via the official installer or a manual install of the
|
||||
python package from pypi. These releases will not break your database.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If you have an interest in how InvokeAI works, or you would like to
|
||||
add features or bugfixes, you are encouraged to install the source
|
||||
code for InvokeAI. For this to work, you will need to install the
|
||||
@ -388,3 +401,5 @@ environment variable INVOKEAI_ROOT to point to the installation directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that if you run into problems with the Conda installation, the InvokeAI
|
||||
staff will **not** be able to help you out. Caveat Emptor!
