-Depending on your OS, you may face the following error :
-```
-$ [nodemon] Internal watch failed: ENOSPC: no space left on device, watch '/PeerTube/dist'
-```
-
-This is due to your system's limit on the number of files you can monitor for live-checking changes. For example, Ubuntu uses inotify and this limit is set to 8192. Then you need to change this limit :
-```
-echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p
-```

-### Configurations for VPS
-
-If you want to develop using a Virtual Private Server, you will need to configure the url for the API and the hostname. First, you need to edit the [client/src/environments/environment.hmr.ts](client/src/environments/environment.hmr.ts) file by replacing the `localhost` in the `apiUrl` field with the address of your VPS. Thus, the [Hot Module Replacement](https://webpack.js.org/concepts/hot-module-replacement/) from Webpack will be set up for developping with live-reload.
-
-Next, you will need to edit the [config/default.yaml](config/default.yaml) file. Just replace the `localhost` with your VPS address in the following `hostname` fields :
-```
-listen:
-  hostname: 'my-vps-address.net'
-  port: 9000
-
-webserver:
-  https: false
-  hostname: 'my-vps-address.net'
-  port: 9000
-```
-
-Then, you just need to listen to `https://my-vps-address.net:3000/` in your web browser.
