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.

 

 ### At a glance

- PHP 8.4.1 or newer
- pdo\_sqlite, mbstring, openssl, fileinfo, ctype, tokenizer, xml
- Recommended: zip and curl
- Write access to storage/, bootstrap/cache/, database/
- HTTPS for offline mode, the installable app and push
