INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS
If you don't know Sandstorm yet, it lets you install server apps as easily as you install apps on your phone. Try a Quick Demo!
To run Sandstorm, you need a 64-bit Linux server connected to the Internet. (Requirements: Linux 3.10 or newer running on x86-64. 1GB+ of RAM; 2GB+ recommended.)
If you don't already have somewhere to run Sandstorm, consider creating a 64-bit Ubuntu LTS virtual machine on your favorite cloud provider.

Run this in a terminal:
curl https://install.sandstorm.io | bash
The installer will offer you free dynamic DNS and valid HTTPS via sandcats.io, a service maintained by the Sandstorm development team.
If you prefer more validation, you can download the install script from GitHub or build from source.
The install script prints the URL where you can begin setup. Visit that link and follow the on-screen instructions to configure login providers, e-mail, and other key details, then log in as a user.
Once you've logged in, install some apps!
Apps in Sandstorm run with a click. You won't need to edit server configuration files or provision databases. Sandstorm manages access control, so apps are private by default.
