Install, secure, and run one Linux server with Just Dashboard. These guides follow the latest release.
Just Dashboard puts the host, containers, deployments, databases, files, and security tools behind one sign-in. It manages one Linux server. Start with a private connection to that server, then choose the task you need to do.

Before you begin
The dashboard can operate the Docker socket, host services, firewall, accounts, files, and a real shell. A signed-in administrator can control the machine. Keep the dashboard on a private network, use an account with only the role it needs, and set up a backup for both the dashboard data and its master key. The installation guide explains the default private setup.
