Requirements

Requirement	Notes
PHP 8.3 or newer
Extensions	mbstring, openssl, pdo, json, ctype, tokenizer, xml, fileinfo
One PDO driver	pdo_sqlite, pdo_mysql or pdo_pgsql
Writable folders	storage/, bootstrap/cache/, and .env (or the project root, so the installer can create it)
A domain or subdomain	For example stats.example.com

The installer runs the same checks and tells you which one fails.

Optional

• PHP zip extension for in-app updates.
• Cron for queued ingestion and retention.
• geoip2/geoip2 plus a MaxMind GeoLite2 City database for country, region and city. Cloudflare, Vercel and CloudFront geo headers work with no setup. See Configuration.

Not required

Node, Composer, Docker or SSH. The release zip bundles its dependencies and the dashboard needs no build step.
