LinkStack - Link in Bio

Your own "Link in Bio" page (like Linktree), but on your own server.

Installation

./local/deploy.sh linkstack --ssh=ALIAS --domain-type=cloudflare --domain=links.example.com
# or locally (SSH tunnel):
./local/deploy.sh linkstack --ssh=ALIAS --domain-type=local --yes

Requirements

  • RAM: ~256MB (container limit: 256MB)
  • Disk: ~550MB (Docker image)
  • Port: 8090

After Installation

Open the URL and go through the setup wizard.

Database Choice

Solopreneur / single profile? Choose SQLite — zero configuration, works out of the box.

Company with multiple employees editing profiles simultaneously? Choose MySQL — handles concurrent edits better.

Technical details
Scenario Recommendation
One profile (personal branding) SQLite
A few profiles, occasional edits SQLite
500+ users with their own profiles MySQL
Frequent simultaneous edits MySQL

SQLite handles up to 100K visits/day. The official LinkStack hosting only uses MySQL for 500+ user instances.

When using MySQL you must back up the database yourself (with SQLite, backups include the database automatically).

Other Settings

  • Admin credentials — save securely, you will need them to log in
  • App Name — name displayed on the page
  • App URL — full URL with https:// (e.g. https://links.your-domain.com)
