Suggested clients:
Join the
#drupal-pnw

#drupal-twig

Install a local development stack.
Drupal developer's suggest the Acquia Dev Desktop, which has installers for both Windows and Mac. Follow the Drupal Ladder instructions. (video)
Other suggestions:
Create 2 development sites with 2 databases. I recommend to easily compare without swapping branches:
d8.dev
with a d8
database to do your development againstd8clean.dev
(optional) with a d8clean
database to compare your conversion code against the latest core.Clone Drupal 8 with git:
(run these commands from within your respective web directories)
D8 webroot:
git clone --recursive --branch 8.x http://git.drupal.org/project/drupal.git your/d8/webroot/path cd your/d8/webroot/path
