22 Installation details
This page describes advanced installation options and system requirements for running PEcAn outside of Docker-based setups. Most users should follow the standard installation guide unless custom configurations are required.
This chapter contains details about installing and maintaining the uncontainerized version of PEcAn on a virtual machine or a server. If you are running PEcAn inside of Docker, many of the particulars will be different and you should refer to the docker chapter instead of this one.
