Forgejo publishes a stable release every three months and a long term support
|
|
(LTS) release every year. Patch releases are published more frequently and
|
|
provide fixes for bugs and security vulnerabilities. Please review the
|
|
[releases management](../../developer/release) and
|
|
also the
|
|
[Forgejo versioning scheme](../../user/versions) documentation for further
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
Get started in a few simple steps:
|
|
|
|
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.
