## Introduction
linkding is a simple bookmark service that you can host yourself.

To install linkding using Docker you can just run the [latest image](https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/sissbruecker/linkding) from Docker Hub:
```shell
docker run --name linkding -p 9090:9090 -d sissbruecker/linkding:latest
```
By default, the application runs on port `9090`, you can map it to a different host port by modifying the port mapping in the command above. If everything completed successfully, the application should now be running and can be accessed at http://localhost:9090, provided you did not change the port mapping.
Note that the command above will store the linkding SQLite database in the container, which means that deleting the container, for example when upgrading the installation, will also remove the database. For hosting an actual installation you usually want to store the database on the host system, rather than in the container. To do so, run the following command, and replace the `{host-data-folder}` placeholder with an absolute path to a folder on your host system where you want to store the linkding database:
```shell
docker run --name linkding -p 9090:9090 -v {host-data-folder}:/etc/linkding/data -d sissbruecker/linkding:latest
```
In the command above, replace the `{host-data-folder}` placeholder with an absolute path to a folder on your host system where you want to store the linkding database.
If everything completed successfully, the application should now be running and can be accessed at http://localhost:9090.
To upgrade the installation to a new version, remove the existing container, pull the latest version of the linkding Docker image, and then start a new container using the same command that you used above. There is a [shell script](https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding/blob/master/install-linkding.sh) available to automate these steps. The script can be configured using environment variables, or you can just modify it.
To complete the setup, you still have to [create an initial user](#user-setup), so that you can access your installation.

The command will prompt you for a secure password. After the command has completed you can start using the application by logging into the UI with your credentials.
Alternatively you can automatically create an initial superuser on startup using the [`LD_SUPERUSER_NAME` option](docs/Options.md#LD_SUPERUSER_NAME).
### Reverse Proxy Setup
When using a reverse proxy, such as Nginx or Apache, you may need to configure your proxy to correctly forward the `Host` header to linkding, otherwise certain requests, such as login, might fail.

### Managed Hosting Options
Self-hosting web applications on your own hardware (unfortunately) still requires a lot of technical know-how, and commitment to maintenance, with regard to keeping everything up-to-date and secure. This can be a huge entry barrier for people who are interested in self-hosting linkding, but lack the technical knowledge to do so. This section is intended to provide alternatives in form of managed hosting solutions. Note that these options are usually commercial offerings, that require paying a (usually monthly) fee for the convenience of being managed by another party. The technical knowledge required to make use of individual options is going to vary, and no guarantees can be made that every option is accessible for everyone. That being said, I hope this section helps in making the application accessible to a wider audience.
