- Set up your Docker apt repository according to the [Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/#install-using-the-repository)
- After installing Ollama, check if it's working by visiting [http://127.0.0.1:11434/](http://127.0.0.1:11434/) in your web browser. Remember, the port number might be different for you.
- **Important:** When using Docker to install Ollama Web UI, make sure to include the `-v ollama-webui:/app/backend/data` in your Docker command. This step is crucial as it ensures your database is properly mounted and prevents any loss of data.
For other ways to install, like using Kustomize or Helm, check out [INSTALLATION.md](/INSTALLATION.md). Join our [Ollama Web UI Discord community](https://discord.gg/5rJgQTnV4s) for more help and information.
While we strongly recommend using our convenient Docker container installation for optimal support, we understand that some situations may require a non-Docker setup, especially for development purposes. Please note that non-Docker installations are not officially supported, and you might need to troubleshoot on your own.
The Ollama Web UI consists of two primary components: the frontend and the backend (which serves as a reverse proxy, handling static frontend files, and additional features). Both need to be running concurrently for the development environment.
