# Getting Started

### Deploy

SAMURAI ships as a single Docker image that bundles the backend, the web UI, and an
embedded MongoDB (external-first, embedded-fallback). See [Deployment](/deployment)
for the full options.

```bash
docker run -d --name samurai -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
  -v samurai-data:/app/mongo-data \
  beyrak44/samurai:latest
```

The image is published on <a href={process.env.DH_URL || "https://hub.docker.com/r/beyrak44/samurai"} target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Docker Hub</a>.
