Step 1 - Server requirements:

This step will ensure that all the server requirements are met before you can proceed any further.

Step 2 - Database setup:

You need a MySQL database for use with this project. If you are using cPanel this is a link to a YouTube video that will help you create a new MySql database: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHwxXGPnw48.

After creating a new database, you just need to fill out the respective details in the installer.

• Database Username in the Username field.
• Database Password in the Password field.
• Database Name in the Name field.
• Database Port in the Port field. (Usually 3306)
• Database Host in the Host field. (Usually localhost)

Step 2 - Admin setup:

After setting up the database, you must create the admin user. Fill in the form with the respective details and make sure your website's URL is valid. Click on the Button to complete the installation process.

If all goes well, you will be redirected to the Admin Panel. Log in with your newly created account and enjoy the app.

Third-party Packages:

The script is built on top of these packages:

Here's how to install all the optimizers on Ubuntu/Debian:

sudo apt-get install jpegoptim
sudo apt-get install optipng
