Installation Guide
SolidInvoice runs anywhere you can run a binary, a Docker container, or PHP. Pick the method that fits your environment — each path below is self-contained, so you only follow the steps that apply to it.
Don't want to host it yourself?
The hosted version of SolidInvoice takes care of installation, updates, backups, and SSL for $8/month. Sign up and skip this guide entirely.
