Docker

You can get set-up with Budget using Docker and Docker Compose. The advantage of using Docker Compose is that it will set you up with a MySQL database.

Docker

You can either build the Docker image yourself, or use the ones available on Docker Hub.

Docker Compose

Assuming you already have Docker Compose installed, simply run docker-compose up -d and you're good to go.
