Since every page view goes through TYPO3 13, the page cache is on the hot path; TYPO3 10 kept it in Redis, TYPO3 13 had it in MySQL. Same socket and options as TYPO3 10, but databases 3-5 instead of 0-2, which may still hold TYPO3 10 entries in a format TYPO3 13 must not read. DDEV gets the redis add-on for the same setup locally. Without a Redis connection the backend logs an alert and misses, so pages still render (slower); a missing PHP redis extension, however, fails hard.

TYPO3 CMS Base Distribution
Get going quickly with TYPO3 CMS.
Prerequisites
- PHP 8.2
- Composer
Quickstart
composer create-project typo3/cms-base-distribution project-name ^13cd project-name
Note that this distribution installs most, but not all of the TYPO3 CMS core extensions. Depending on your need you might also want to install other TYPO3 extensions from packagist.org.
Setup
To start an interactive installation, you can do so by executing the following command and then follow the wizard:
composer exec typo3 setup
Setup unattended (optional)
If you're a more advanced user, you might want to leverage the unattended installation. To do this, you need to execute the following command and substitute the arguments with your own environment configuration.
export TYPO3_SETUP_ADMIN_PASSWORD=$(tr -dc "_A-Za-z0-9#=$()/" < /dev/urandom | head -c24)
composer exec -- typo3 setup \
--no-interaction \
--server-type=other \
--driver=sqlite \
--admin-username=admin \
--admin-email="[email protected]" \
--project-name="My TYPO3 Project" \
--create-site="http://localhost:8000/"
echo "Admin password: ${TYPO3_SETUP_ADMIN_PASSWORD}"
Development server
While it's advised to use a more sophisticated web server such as Apache 2 or Nginx, you can instantly run the project by using PHPs` built-in web server.
TYPO3_CONTEXT=Development php -S localhost:8000 -t public- open your browser at "http://localhost:8000"
Please be aware that the built-in web server is single threaded and only meant to be used for development.
