# Setup v4 Liquidity Management (/docs/protocols/v4/guides/managing-liquidity/getting-started)

Set up a local Uniswap v4 liquidity management environment with Foundry and PositionManager dependencies.

For users looking to interact with the canonical Uniswap v4 `PositionManager`, *v4-periphery* is a required dependency

Currently, developing with Uniswap v4 *requires [foundry](https://book.getfoundry.sh)*

## Getting Started
*Use [v4-template](https://github.com/new?template_name=v4-template\&template_owner=uniswapfoundation)*, which has pre-configured dependencies and tests for Uniswap v4

Clone the repository made from *v4-template*

```bash
git clone https://github.com/<your_username>/<your_repo>
```

Install dependencies

```bash
forge install
```

## Manual Setup
After cloning the repository, and installing foundry, developers can manually set up their Uniswap v4 environment:

1. Initialize a foundry project
   ```bash
   forge init . --force
   ```

2. Install dependencies
   ```bash
   forge install uniswap/v4-core
   forge install uniswap/v4-periphery
   ```

3. Set the `remappings.txt` to:
   ```
   @uniswap/v4-core/=lib/v4-core/
   forge-gas-snapshot/=lib/v4-core/lib/forge-gas-snapshot/src/
   forge-std/=lib/v4-core/lib/forge-std/src/
   permit2/=lib/v4-periphery/lib/permit2/
   solmate/=lib/v4-core/lib/solmate/
   v4-periphery/=lib/v4-periphery/
   ```
