## Instances
2020-01-28 14:43:48 +00:00
The official instance is on https://bibliogram.art.
You can see a list of instances run by the community [on the wiki page ](https://github.com/cloudrac3r/bibliogram/wiki/Instances ).
2020-01-12 12:50:21 +00:00
If you only use one computer, you can install Bibliogram on that computer and then access the instance through localhost.
## Installing
2020-02-14 09:55:26 +00:00
Quick setup, if you've run webservers before:
2020-01-14 14:44:45 +00:00
2020-02-14 09:55:26 +00:00
1. Install [node.js ](https://nodejs.org/en/ ) (^12.13.0 suggested)
1. `$ git clone https://github.com/cloudrac3r/bibliogram`
2020-01-14 14:44:45 +00:00
If you are using a fork, be sure to actually install that fork instead!
2020-02-14 09:55:26 +00:00
1. `$ cd bibliogram`
2020-02-02 11:43:56 +00:00

2020-01-14 14:44:45 +00:00

1. `$ npm start`
