Raw Blame History

Theres a progressive path in how people tend to install and deploy SilverBullet. Generally, its best to try it out on your local machine first. Play around a bit, see if its for you.

Once youre hooked, you may want to spend a little bit more time and host SilverBullet on a server in your local network or on the public Internet. SilverBullet is not currently available as a SaaS product, so youll have to install and run it yourself.

Installation options

Installing SilverBullet as a (local) web server is pretty straightforward if youre technically inclined enough to be able to use a terminal.

The basic setup is simple: you run the SilverBullet server process on your machine, then connect to it locally from your browser via localhost.

You have a few options here:

  1. Installation via Install/Docker (the awesome container runtime): recommended if you already have Docker installed
  2. Installation via Install/Deno (the awesome JavaScript runtime): recommended if you intend to hack on SilverBullet itself later on
  3. More advanced: deploy directly to the cloud via Install/Deno Deploy

Non-local access

Once you got a comfortable set running locally, you may want to look at options to expose your setup to your Install/Network and Internet.
