🚧 Release Candidate

This is pre-release software. While we're providing migrations between versions, changes may occur at any time, and certain features might be missing or broken. You can follow along with the issue tracker for an in-depth list of upcoming enhancements.

⚙️ Installation

Create a new Directus project by running the following npm command:

npx create-directus-project my-project

Or, using yarn:

yarn create directus-project my-project

Simply follow the setup prompts and the CLI will create your new project directory (eg: my-project), configuration file, and initial database. To get the most out of Directus, and to ensure you have the latest security patches, it is important to keep your projects up-to-date.

🚀 One-Click Deployments

If you would like to completely avoid the manual installation process, the following self-hosted one-click apps will handle the heavy-lifting for you. While Directus is always completely free, you will likely need to pay for these services.
