![Ghost is a simple, powerful publishing platform that allows you to share your stories with the world.](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/120485/6626501/b2bb072c-c8ff-11e4-8e1a-2e78e68fd5c3.png)

The project is maintained by a non-profit organisation called the **Ghost Foundation**, along with an amazing group of independent [contributors](https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/contributors). We're trying to make publishing software that changes the shape of online journalism.

# Quick Start Install

Make sure you've installed Node.js - We recommend the latest **Node v0.10.x** release.

Ghost is also compatible with **Node v0.12** and **io.js v1.2**, but please note that these versions are more likely to run into installation problems. May contain nuts. Please use the [forum](https://ghost.org/forum/installation/) for help.

1. Download the [latest release](https://ghost.org/download/) of Ghost
1. Unzip in the location you want to install
1. Fire up a terminal
1. `npm install --production`
1. Start Ghost!
- Local environment: `npm start`
- On a server: `npm start --production`
1. `http://localhost:2368/ghost` :tada:

More [install docs](http://support.ghost.org/installation/) here in case you got stuck.

```bash
grunt prod
```

Start your engines.

Congrats! You made it. BTW you can also just `npm install ghost` if you're into that sort of thing. NPM afficionados can also read up on using [Ghost as an NPM module](https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/wiki/Using-Ghost-as-an-npm-module).

# Deploying Ghost

![Ghost(Pro) + DigitalOcean](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/120485/8180331/d6674e32-1414-11e5-8ce4-2250e9994906.png)

Save yourself time and headaches with our fully managed **[Ghost(Pro)](https://ghost.org/pricing/)** service. Deploy a new instance of Ghost in a couple of clicks running on [DigitalOcean](https://digitalocean.com)’s rock solid infrastructure, with a worldwide CDN thrown in at no extra charge.

All revenue from **Ghost(Pro)** goes to the Ghost Foundation, the non-profit org which funds the maintenance and further development of Ghost.

[Other options](http://support.ghost.org/deploying-ghost/) are also available if you prefer playing around with servers by yourself.

# Staying Up to Date

When a new version of Ghost comes out, you'll want to look over these [upgrade instructions](http://support.ghost.org/how-to-upgrade/) for what to do next.

You can talk to other Ghost users on [our forums](https://ghost.org/forum) or chat with Ghost developers in our [public Slack team](https://ghost.org/slack/) (it's pretty awesome). We have a public meeting every Tuesday at 5:30pm London time.

New releases are announced on the [dev blog](http://dev.ghost.org/tag/releases/). You can subscribe by email or follow [@TryGhost_Dev](https://twitter.com/tryghost_dev) on Twitter, if you prefer your updates bite-sized and facetious.
