I outline the basics of numerical solution of quantum field theory using the Source Galerkin method. This method is based on an analysis of the functional differential equations of a field theory in the presence of external sources. This approach is particularly powerful because it naturally allows the inclusion of symmetry information and avoids the fermion determinant problem associated with Monte Carlo calculations. The technique is also suitable for continuum calculations.
