Baserow is an open-source no-code database platform positioned as an Airtable alternative, with an official all-in-one Docker Compose deployment.

Target: Any Docker hostDatabaseOfficial homepage ↗Official docs ↗
This guide is synthesized from Baserow's own official documentation, linked above — always cross-check exact package/version names there before running these commands on a production server, since distro and project versions move over time.

  1. 1Clone the Baserow repository

    git clone --depth=1 --branch master https://github.com/baserow/baserow.git
    cd baserow

  2. 2Set required secrets

    Edit .env and set your own values for the three required variables: SECRET_KEY, DATABASE_PASSWORD, and REDIS_PASSWORD.

    cp .env.example .env

    Baserow will not start with insecure default values for these three variables.

  3. 3Start Baserow

    Watch the logs for the message 'Baserow is now available at...' to confirm startup completed.

    docker-compose up -d
    docker-compose logs -f

  4. 4Access Baserow

    Open http://localhost (port 80/443) and create your first workspace/account through the web UI.
