# Docker

Docker deployments with Quadratic are a few easy steps away. Instructions vary depending on operating system. 

## MacOS and Linux

**Basic requirements:** 

* License Key (available at <https://selfhost.quadratichq.com/>)
* The following open ports: 80, 443, 3001, 3002, 3003, 4433, 4455, and 8000
* [Docker](https://www.docker.com/get-started/)

```bash
curl -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/quadratichq/quadratic-selfhost/main/init-local.sh -o init.sh && bash -i init.sh
```

This will start the process of downloading and running containers, also prompting for the license key that you can acquire for free at <https://selfhost.quadratichq.com/>. Quadratic self-hosting is free for up to three users on a single deployment.&#x20;
