Getting Started
Welcome to News Dashboard, your AI research desk for technical news. Find what matters across fast-moving sources, understand it with briefings and cited AI tools, and retain useful material. There are four ways to start, depending on how you want to access the app.
| On-ramp | Best for |
|---|---|
| Install the Android APK | Reading on an Android phone or tablet |
| Create a web account | Reading in a browser on any device |
| Try the demo | Trying the app locally with sample data, no setup |
| Self-host your own instance | Running News Dashboard on your own infrastructure |
The public instance runs at news.lihor.ro. If you are using that instance, follow the APK or web-account guide above.
If you are running your own instance (via Docker, Docker Compose, or Helm), see the Self-Hosting guide for detailed deployment instructions after you have completed the quick start in the README.
