Welcome to MyWay 🎉
Thank you! Your MyWay license is active. Your license key and a download link for the install package will arrive shortly by email from hello@themyway.app. Once it lands, you can run the product on your own server in about 5 minutes.
The download link and license key arrive by email. If you don’t see it within a few minutes, check your spam folder; if it still doesn’t arrive, email hello@themyway.app and we’ll send the package manually.
Requirements
- A Linux server (2 GB+ RAM recommended) — your own VPS or company server
- Docker and Docker Compose installed
- A domain (DNS A record pointing to the server) — TLS is automatic (Let’s Encrypt)
Installation
Download the install package
Use the download link in your email to get the install package. It contains the ready-built application images (no source code), the Docker Compose file, the install script and the guide.
Extract it on your server
Copy the package to your server and extract it:
tar xzf myway-onprem.tar.gz
cd myway-onpremRun the install script
The script asks for your domain, generates strong secrets automatically, loads the ready images (docker load — no build) and starts all services (app, PostgreSQL, Caddy with automatic TLS):
./scripts/install.shSign up — the first user becomes admin
Once services are up (a few minutes; the TLS certificate is issued automatically) go to your domain and create an account. On a fresh install the first user to sign up automatically becomes the administrator (superadmin) — there’s no separate admin step.
License key (required)
The install script (step 3) asks for the license key from your email. Without a valid key the app starts locked. A license is valid for 1 year (use + updates); after it expires there is a short grace period, then it locks — renew to keep using it.
Need help?
Detailed installation, backup and upgrade steps are in the guide inside the package and in the documentation. For anything you get stuck on, just email us: hello@themyway.app
