Server setup¶
If you are just testing your app on your personal computer, you can use
otree devserver
. You don’t need a full server setup.
However, when you want to share your app with an audience, you must use a web server.
Choose which option you need:
You want to launch your app to users on the internet
Use Heroku.
You want the easiest setup
Again, we recommend Heroku.
You want to use your own computer as a server on your local network
e.g. running a lab study or field study. Follow these steps:
- Conventional installation
- Set up your PC as an ad-hoc server
You want to set up a dedicated Linux server
