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 available as a SaaS product, so youll have to self host it.
# 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
# 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]].
