# Server Configuration
|
|
|
|
As mentioned, Snipe-IT is web-based software, which means it requires a web server to run.
|
|
|
|
#### You must complete all of the steps in the installation section, in addition to configuring your server. That means you will [download the software](../downloading.html), [customize your configuration files](../configuration.html), [install the dependencies with composer](../composer.html), and run the [command line utility](../command-line.html), in addition to configuring your web server.
|
|
|
|
Installation should take around twenty minutes or less, if nothing goes wrong, and if you're pretty familiar with web server configuration.
|
|
|
|
__NOTE: You should never run Snipe-IT (or any website, ever) as a root (Linux) or Administrator (Windows). Create an unprivileged user and make them the owner of the files.__
