The automated install script expects a dedicated computer or virtual machine with ports 80 and 443 available.
You can use our simple automated script to install United onto any ol’ computer or server running Linux with Docker. I highly recommend this option as it allows for minimizing recurring costs and full control.
Just paste the following in the terminal and answer a few short questions!
bash <(curl -s https://codeberg.org/reesericci/united/raw/branch/main/bin/install)
To install Linux on a computer, please visit the Fedora Server install guide.
