Self Hosting

The entire source code for Ente is open source, including the servers. This is the same code we use for our own cloud service.

TIP

You might find our blog post announcing the open sourcing of our server useful.

System requirements

The server has minimal resource requirements, running as a lightweight Go binary. It performs well on small cloud instances, old laptops, and even low-end embedded devices.

Getting started

Run this command on your terminal to setup Ente.

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ente-io/ente/main/server/quickstart.sh)"

The above curl command pulls the Docker image, creates a directory my-ente in the current working directory and starts all containers required to run Ente.
