About YunoHost

YunoHost is a server operating system that aims to make self-hosting accessible to everyone. It installs on a Raspberry Pi, an old computer or a VPS and lets you add domains, users, backups and a large catalogue of apps — mail, file sharing, chat, media and more — in a few clicks through its web admin, so individuals and small organisations can run services they control.
