Requirements
What you need
You don’t need your own server, just ordinary PHP web hosting. No SSH, no Docker, no command line. You don’t need a separate database either.
The built-in check page tells you whether your hosting is ready before you open the app for the first time.
What’s next
Self-hosting in three steps

2. Upload
Unzip it and upload the contents via FTP – or unzip it right in your host’s file manager.
-
3. Open
Visit the address in your browser. The database sets itself up and you create your first account.
