Installation

Requirements

• Apache or Nginx
• PHP >= 5.3.3
• PHP extensions required: mbstring and pdo_sqlite (don't forget to enable extensions)
• A web browser with HTML5 drag and drop support

From the archive (stable version)

1. You must have a web server with PHP installed
2. Download the source code and copy the directory kanboard where you want
3. Check if the directory data is writeable
4. With your browser go to http://yourpersonalserver/kanboard
5. The default login and password is admin/admin
6. Start to use the software
7. Don't forget to change your password!

Note: The folder data is the location where Kanboard stores uploaded files as well as the Sqlite database.

From the repository (development version)

You must install composer to use this method.

1. git clone https://github.com/fguillot/kanboard.git
2. composer install
3. Go to the third step just above

Note: This method will install the current development version, use at your own risk.

Security

• Don't forget to change the default user/password
• Don't allow everybody to access to the directory data from the URL. There is already a .htaccess for Apache but nothing for Nginx.
