+    title: 'Self Hosting Instant on Railway'
+    description: 'Deploy Instant with a one-click Railway template.'
+---
+
+The quickest way to self-host Instant is the [Railway one-click
+template](https://railway.com/deploy/instantdb). It provisions a full Instant
+deployment—backend, dashboard, PostgreSQL, and object storage—in a single
+Railway project, so you can go from zero to a working instance without
+provisioning servers yourself.
+
+## What gets deployed
+
+The template creates four resources:
+
+- **`server`**: The Instant backend API, running
+  [`ghcr.io/instantdb/server:latest`](https://github.com/instantdb/instant/pkgs/container/server).
+- **`dashboard`**: The Instant dashboard UI, running
+  `ghcr.io/instantdb/dashboard:latest`.
+- **`postgres`**: PostgreSQL with the settings and extensions Instant needs,
+  including `pg_hint_plan`.
+- **`instantdb-storage`**: A [Railway Bucket](https://docs.railway.com/storage-buckets)
+  that provides S3-compatible object storage for Instant Storage.
+
+The template wires everything together with reference variables. The server
+receives `DATABASE_URL` from Postgres plus `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`,
+`AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `AWS_REGION`, `S3_ENDPOINT`, `S3_PUBLIC_ENDPOINT`, and
+`S3_BUCKET` from the bucket, so you don't have to copy credentials around.
+
+## Deploy the template
+
+Open [railway.com/deploy/instantdb](https://railway.com/deploy/instantdb) and
+click **Deploy Now**. Railway creates the project and starts all services.
+
+## Add public domains
+
+Add public domains to the `server` and `dashboard` services. You can use the
+generated `*.up.railway.app` domains or attach your own custom domains.
+
+Then set your public URLs in the server's variables:
+
+```shell {% showCopy=true %}
+INSTANT_BACKEND_URL=https://your-server-domain
+INSTANT_DASHBOARD_URL=https://your-dashboard-domain
+```
+
+Make sure the URLs match the domains you created, including the scheme.
+
+{% callout type="note" %}
+If you attach custom domains, update these URLs to use them. Clients and the
+dashboard both read `INSTANT_BACKEND_URL`, so changing it later means updating
+every connected app.
+{% /callout %}
+
+## Configure email
+
+Until you configure an email provider, Instant writes magic code emails to the
+backend logs. To deliver real login emails, set a `POSTMARK_TOKEN` or
+`SENDGRID_TOKEN` on the `server` service along with the sender variables. See
+[Configure email](/docs/self-hosting#configure-email-with-postmark) for details.
+
+## Create the superuser
+
+Set `INSTANT_SUPERUSER_EMAIL` on the `server` service before first login.
+Instant creates this dashboard user at startup and it can manage deployment
+settings such as restricting signups.
+
+## Scaling and costs
+
+Scale vertically from each service's Railway settings: increase memory or CPU
+for `server`, or upgrade the Postgres instance as your workload grows. Railway
+bills per usage, so costs depend on the resources you allocate.
+
+Running multiple backend replicas requires shared configuration and service
+discovery over the Hazelcast and gRPC ports, which this template does not set
+up. See [horizontal scaling](/docs/self-hosting#horizontal-scaling) before
+running more than one backend instance.
