+
+## What You'll Get
+
+A fully working PostHog instance running on your server. Your data stays on your hardware — no third-party access, no usage limits, no surprise invoices.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- A server with Docker and Docker Compose installed ([setup guide](/quick-start/choosing-a-server))
+- A domain name pointed to your server (optional but recommended)
+- Basic terminal access (SSH)
+
+## The Config
+
+Create a directory for PostHog and add this `docker-compose.yml`:
+
+```yaml
