Hello,

What is the OS that you are using locally?

For example, if you are using Linux as a desktop you could follow the steps on how to install MongoDB locally here:

In case that you are using Windows, you could download MongoDB via the link below and install it using the downloaded MongoDB .msi file:

Hope that this helps!

Best,

Bobby
