This guide covers the installation of Forgejo [with
Docker](../installation-docker/) or [from
binary](../installation-binary/). Both of these methods are created
and extensively tested to work on every release. They consist of three
steps:
Get started in a few simple steps:
- Download and run the release,
- connect to the web interface and complete the configuration, and,
- finally register the first user which will be granted administrative permissions.
1. set up Forgejo on your system ...
- [from binary](../installation-binary/)
- [with Docker](../installation-docker/)
- with third-party packaging for various platforms [(see the "Delightful Forgejo" list)](https://codeberg.org/forgejo-contrib/delightful-forgejo#packaging). Unlike the two official installation methods, these resources are not extensively tested to work on every release.
2. connect to the web interface and complete the configuration, and,
3. register the first user which will be granted administrative permissions.
If you already have Gitea installed through your package manager, look at the [Gitea
migration](../gitea-migration/) guide for information on how to install Forgejo, while
preserving your data from your Gitea installation.
Forgejo is also available for installation using package managers on many platforms. At this
time, Forgejo has been successfully adapted for use on various platforms, including Alpine Linux, Arch
Linux, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, Manjaro, and the Nix ecosystem. These
platform-specific packages are under the care of distribution packagers, and specific packages are
currently undergoing testing. For a curated inventory, please refer to
[the "Delightful Forgejo" list](https://codeberg.org/forgejo-contrib/delightful-forgejo#packaging).
