Dokku is a lightweight PaaS that simplifies application deployment and management using Docker.\n\n## Prerequisites\n\nBefore proceeding, ensure you have:\n\n- A server with [Dokku installed](https://dokku.com/docs/getting-started/installation/)\n- The [PostgreSQL plugin](https://github.com/dokku/dokku-postgres) installed on Dokku\n- (Optional) The [Let's Encrypt plugin](https://github.com/dokku/dokku-letsencrypt) for SSL certificates\n- Domain pointing to your server (optional)\n\n## Minimum Requirements\n\nFor 1-10 users, you'll need:\n\n- **CPU**: 0.3 cores\n- **RAM**: 256MB\n- **Storage**: 2GB\n- **Network**: 10Mbps\n\n\u003e For detailed system requirements and recommendations for different team sizes, see [System Requirements](docs/system-requirements.md).\n\n## Quick Start\n\n1. **Create the application:**\n   ```bash\n   dokku apps:create evo\n   ```\n\n2. **Set up PostgreSQL:**\n   ```bash\n   dokku postgres:create evo\n   dokku postgres:link evo evo\n   dokku config:set evo DATABASE_CONNECTION_URI=\"$(dokku config:get evo DATABASE_URL)\"\n   ```\n\n3. **Configure authentication:**\n   ```bash\n   API_KEY=$(openssl rand -hex 16)\n   dokku config:set evo AUTHENTICATION_API_KEY=\"$API_KEY\"\n   dokku config:set evo SERVER_URL=\"https://your-domain.com\"\n   ```\n\n4. **Deploy:**\n   ```bash\n   dokku git:sync --build evo https://github.com/carrilloapps/evolution-api-on-dokku.git\n   ```\n\n\u003e For complete installation instructions, see [Installation Guide](docs/installation.md).\n\n## Documentation\n\n- **[Installation Guide](docs/installation.md)** - Complete step-by-step installation process\n- **[System Requirements](docs/system-requirements.md)** - Hardware and software requirements\n- **[Configuration](docs/configuration.md)** - Environment variables and settings\n- **[Performance \u0026 Optimization](docs/performance.md)** - Tips for scaling and optimization\n- **[Redis Integration](docs/redis-integration.md)** - Optional Redis caching guide (for 50+ users)\n- **[Useful Commands](docs/useful-commands.md)** - Common management commands\n- **[Changelog](docs/changelog.md)** - Version history and updates\n\n## Features\n\n- ✅ **Minimal resource usage** (256MB RAM, 0.5 CPU by default)\n- ✅ **PostgreSQL only** (no cache/Redis required - works perfectly for 1-50 users)\n- ✅ **Automatic Prisma migrations**\n- ✅ **Optimized health checks** (single instance)\n- ✅ **Persistent storage**\n- ✅ **Pre-configured environment variables**\n- ✅ **Scalable** (easily adjust resources based on user load)\n- 🔧 **Optional Redis integration** (only needed for 50+ users - see [Redis Integration Guide](docs/redis-integration.md))\n\n## Contributing\n\nWe welcome contributions!
