Your server. Your runtime. One command.
A Createrun Instance is the Createrun runtime running on your own server — your data and your apps stay on infrastructure you control, and every app you need installs straight from the Store.
curl -fsSL https://store.createrun.ai/installer/install.sh | sudo bash -s -- --accept-eula
What is an instance?
One installation of the Createrun platform — the runtime services plus a management UI — running on a machine you own. The Store is where you get it, where you get apps for it, and where its updates come from.
Own your runtime
Everything runs on your server: the runtime services, the management UI, and your data. Nothing about your day-to-day operation depends on someone else's cloud.
Install apps from the Store
Browse the marketplace, pick an app, and install it into your instance. Signed packages are verified on your machine before anything runs.
Updates on your schedule
New platform and app versions are published to the Store; your instance installs them when you decide to. No forced upgrades in the middle of your workday.
Linux & Windows
The same platform installs as systemd services on Linux and as Windows services on Windows — pick whichever your infrastructure already speaks.
How it works
From an empty server to an app-ready instance in three steps — the installer does the heavy lifting.
Install
Run the one-line installer as root or Administrator. It checks the prerequisites, downloads the latest release, verifies its checksums, and starts the runtime services.
Register
The new instance registers itself with the Store and receives its own identity. From then on, the Store knows this instance and can deliver apps and updates to it.
Install apps from the Store
The base applications are pulled in automatically and the management UI comes online. Sign in, open the marketplace, and install the apps your business runs on.
Before you install: you need root or Administrator rights, the .NET 10 runtime on the machine, and free ports for the runtime services. The install guide lists every prerequisite and installer option.
Pick your platform
Same instance, same Store, two operating systems — plus a graphical installer if you prefer clicking to typing.
Linux
Installs as systemd services with one command in your terminal. Built for headless servers — no desktop required.
curl -fsSL https://store.createrun.ai/installer/install.sh | sudo bash -s -- --accept-eula
Windows
Installs as Windows services from an elevated PowerShell prompt — the installer handles elevation and service setup for you.

Prefer a guided setup? Setup.UI, the graphical installer, walks you through the same installation step by step — see the Setup.UI section of the install guide.
