Create a new directory called glance as well as the template files within it by running:

mkdir glance && cd glance && curl -sL https://github.com/glanceapp/docker-compose-template/archive/refs/heads/main.tar.gz | tar -xzf - --strip-components 2

click here to view the files that will be created

Then, edit the following files as desired:

• docker-compose.yml to configure the port, volumes and other containery things
• config/home.yml to configure the widgets or layout of the home page
• config/glance.yml if you want to change the theme or add more pages

When ready, run:

docker compose up -d

If you encounter any issues, you can check the logs by running:

docker compose logs

Create a docker-compose.yml file with the following contents:

services:
  glance:
    container_name: glance
    image: glanceapp/glance
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - ./config:/app/config
    ports:
      - 8080:8080

Then, create a new directory called config and download the example starting glance.yml file into it by running:

mkdir config && wget -O config/glance.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/glanceapp/glance/refs/heads/main/docs/glance.yml

Feel free to edit the glance.yml file to your liking, and when ready run:

docker compose up -d

If you encounter any issues, you can check the logs by running:

docker logs glance

Precompiled binaries are available for Linux, Windows and macOS (x86, x86_64, ARM and ARM64 architectures).

Linux

Visit the latest release page for available binaries. You can place the binary in /opt/glance/ and have it start with your server via a systemd service. By default, when running the binary, it will look for a glance.yml file in the directory it's placed in. To specify a different path for the config file, use the --config option:

/opt/glance/glance --config /etc/glance.yml

To grab a starting template for the config file, run:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/glanceapp/glance/refs/heads/main/docs/glance.yml

Windows

Download and extract the executable from the latest release (most likely the file called glance-windows-amd64.zip if you're on a 64-bit system) and place it in a folder of your choice. Then, create a new text file called glance.yml in the same folder and paste the content from here in it. You should then be able to run the executable and access the dashboard by visiting http://localhost:8080 in your browser.

Glance can also be installed through the following 3rd party channels:

• Proxmox VE Helper Script
• NixOS package
• Hostinger
• Coolify.io

The most common cause of this is when using Pi-Hole, AdGuard Home or other ad-blocking DNS services, which by default have a fairly low rate limit. Depending on the number of widgets you have in a single page, this limit can very easily be exceeded. To fix this, increase the rate limit in the settings of your DNS service.

If using Podman, in some rare cases the timeout can be caused by an unknown issue, in which case it may be resolved by adding the following to the bottom of your docker-compose.yml file:
