CasaOS

A free, open-source, friendly home-server dashboard that sits on top of an existing Linux install (often a Raspberry Pi) -- app store, file manager, and Docker container management in one simple UI.

Target: Debian / Ubuntu / Raspberry Pi OSNASHome ServerOfficial homepage ↗Official docs ↗
This guide is synthesized from CasaOS'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. 1Run the official install script

    curl -fsSL https://get.casaos.io | sudo bash

    This installs Docker (if not already present) plus CasaOS itself -- review the script at the link below before piping it to bash if you'd rather not run a remote script blind.

  2. 2Open the dashboard

    Create the admin account on first visit.

  3. 3Install apps from the built-in App Store

    CasaOS's App Store wraps common self-hosted apps (many of the same ones covered elsewhere in this Guides section) as one-click installs on top of Docker.
