Administration in your own hands
Libre Workspace is free. You can start the installation immediately if you have basic knowledge of server administration. Even though everything is very easy to understand, it can sometimes be helpful to lend a hand yourself due to your own individual circumstances. Should you encounter challenges or have any questions, our support is available to you at any time!
How to start with Libre Workspace yourself
Set up a server
Either book a server from a hosting provider or use your own hardware. For testing purposes, you can also use a virtual machine (don’t forget the network bridge).
Obtain an internet domain (recommended)
To use all features as easily as possible, we recommend using a dedicated internet domain for Libre Workspace. Alternatively, you can operate Libre Workspace exclusively locally and skip this step. Unfortunately, our chat module does not support subsequent changes (if you wish to use it).
Create installation media
If you use your own hardware, you may need to write the .iso installation file to a USB flash drive. You can do this using Etcher. Otherwise, you can simply mount the .iso file and start!
Start installation
The installation starts automatically. You only need to determine the partitioning and the installation of the bootloader. The default settings are completely sufficient.
Setup in the web browser
Define everything else, as well as the app selection, either on the server or in the web browser by calling up the server’s IP address.
Finished!
After approx. 10 to 20 minutes, Libre Workspace is fully configured and ready for use. Have fun using it!
