This guide is synthesized from Umami'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. 1Get the official compose file

    Umami ships a docker-compose.yml in its repo that bundles the app with a PostgreSQL database.

  2. 2Build and start

    docker compose up -d

  3. 3Log in and change the password
