Get Joinery Running
Self-install on your own server, or pay $99 and we'll do it for you.
Requirements
Before you start, you'll need:
- A server — Ubuntu 24.04 recommended (any Debian-based distro should work)
- Root SSH access to the server
- A domain name pointed at the server's IP address
What Gets Installed
The install script provisions everything from scratch:
- Apache2 with VHost configuration
- PHP 8.x
- PostgreSQL with a dedicated database and user
- Full Joinery installation — site directory, config file, initial database schema
- SSL via Let's Encrypt (auto-provisioned once DNS is live)
Install Steps
