# Quick Start
Neko is easy to use and requires no technical expertise to get started. All you need to do is download the Docker image and you're ready to go:
1. Deploy a server or VPS with a public IP address.
**Recommended Specs:**
| Resolution | Cores | Ram | Recommendation |
|-------------|-------|-------|------------------|
| 1024×576@30 | 2 | 2gb | Not Recommended |
| 1280x720@30 | 4 | 3gb | Good Performance |
| 1280x720@30 | 6 | 4gb | Recommended |
| 1280x720@30 | 8 | 4gb+ | Best Performance |
:::danger[Why are the specs so high?]
If you think about it, you have to run a full desktop, a browser (a resource hog on its own) *and* encode/transmit the desktop, there's a lot going on and so it demands some power.
:::
:::note
The admin can change the resolution in the GUI.
:::
2. [Login via SSH](https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/droplets/how-to/connect-with-ssh/).
3. Install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/):
```shell
curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ | CHANNEL=stable bash
```
4. Install [Docker Compose Plugin](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/linux/):
```shell
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install docker-compose-plugin
```
5. Download the docker compose file and start it:
```shell
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/m1k1o/neko/master/docker-compose.yaml
sudo docker compose up -d
```
:::note
If you want to run Neko on your local network, you have to add `NEKO_NAT1TO1=<your-local-ip>` to the `docker-compose.yaml` file.
:::
6. Visit the server's IP address in your browser and log in, the default password is `neko`.
:::tip
Run `nano docker-compose.yaml` to edit the settings, then press `ctrl+x` to exit and save the file.
