Quick Install
One-line installation with install.sh
Basic Install
curl -fsSL https://limerence.sh/install.sh | bashThe script checks for a container runtime, creates a limerence directory, starts PostgreSQL and the backend, and opens http://localhost:3000.
Any Docker-compatible runtime works — Docker Desktop, OrbStack, Colima, Rancher Desktop, or Podman. Make sure the runtime is running before you start. If you just installed it, open a fresh terminal first so its CLI is on your PATH.
Interactive Mode
curl -fsSL https://limerence.sh/install.sh | bash -s -- --interactivePrompts you to choose local or external PostgreSQL, set a custom port, and configure AI provider keys before starting.
